Didier Aaron : vue de la galerie

Founded in Paris in 2010 after experience in leading auction houses and international galleries, we receive collectors, curators and art lovers by appointment.

While our beginnings lay in the world of Old Master drawings, with its rigorous traditions of attribution and research, our curiosity and taste have steadily widened beyond any single medium or period.

We now take particular pleasure to share the works we encounter in the course of our research – works that captivate us for their beauty, their historical depth, and their intensity.
