History of Marlborough Fine Art

Marlborough Fine Art was founded in 1946 by Frank Lloyd and Harry Fischer and by 1952 was already selling masterpieces of late 19th century including bronzes by Edgar Degas and paintings by Mary Cassatt, Paul Signac, Claude Monet, Camille Pissarro, Alfred Sisley, Auguste Renoir amongst others and drawings by Constantine Guys and Vincent van Gogh and organizing exhibitions which set new standards for commercial galleries. These were recognized as Museum quality exhibitions and the gallery became a focus for international collectors, museum directors and connoisseurs as well as history of art students.

In the late 1950’s and early 1960’s Marlborough was the first gallery to introduce a London audience to exhibitions of German and Austrian painting of the 20th Century. Exhibitions such as: Art in Revolt, Germany 1905-1925; Kandinsky, the Road to Abstraction and The Painters of the Bauhaus, Egon Schiele and a major Kurt Schwitters show were truly ground breaking exhibitions. At about the same time, the gallery started to show major contemporary artists and to promote British artists on an international scale in conjunction with the British Council. Marlborough rapidly signed up the major artists of the time including Frank Auerbach, Francis Bacon, Henry Moore, Barbara Hepworth, Ben Nicholson, Victor Pasmore, Graham Sutherland and many others.

More than 70 years on, the gallery continues to be associated with some of the greatest living artists of today. Frank Auerbach and Paula Rego for example, are seen to be among the most important contemporary artists at the peak of their careers. Marlborough continues to promote their artists; participates in Art Fairs around the world and works with Museums in organizing important exhibitions. Marlborough is continuously expanding its activities into parts of the world like China, Brazil, Mexico and Russia. https://marlboroughgallery.com
