Recent Old Stories
Each old work of art has stories to reveal. In addition to esthetics, that is what draws is to art from the past. When I started working for Richard Reed Armstrong Fine Art in 1998 most everything was sold at in-person shows or over the phone. All our sales were predicated on an exchange of stories. Today more than half the sales happen online, without much conversation at all. In an effort to share my side of the story, I have been adding short comments about what I see in a work of art I list online. Increasingly, when you click on an image that intrigues you, you will find at least some context about that particular work. Here are a few such works.
