ABOUT

Founded in 1760, Colnaghi is one of the oldest commercial art galleries in the world and one of the few to specialize in works of art from antiquity to the modern era. Since the late nineteenth century, Colnaghi has been a leading dealership in Old Master paintings, prints, and drawings, selling masterpieces to the greatest collectors and museums of the Gilded Age. With galleries today in London, New York, and Madrid, Colnaghi presents rare objects from the Ancient World, the finest Old Masters, and Modern masterpieces, providing its clients with expert advice and opportunities to cross collect across centuries and media.

Since 2015, Colnaghi is directed by CEO and owner Jorge Coll. Carlos A. Picón, longtime curator of Greek and Roman art at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, NY, oversees Colnaghi New York, which reopened under his directorship in 2017.

2022, marks the opening of a representative office in Brussels managed by Philippe Henricot, expanding the gallery’s international presence in continental Europe.
