Our Lists are published here on the first Wednesday of every month. They introduce at least 100 works to our large stock of oil paintings, watercolours, drawings and prints, arranged over three floors at our Museum Street gallery. Nothing is sold from the List before 9.30am on the Wednesday it is published. Those of you who are on the doorstep get first go at the new stock, and while we try to keep telephone and email enquiries in strict order of receipt, there will be times when technological overlaps muddy the system.
Images: These are only intended as an indication of the work – please telephone or email if you have any questions about the photograph’s relationship to the original. We reserve pictures for 24 hours while they are being considered.
For larger images or to make reservations email gallery@abbottandholder.co.uk
Attributions: are fully guaranteed; don’t hesitate to question us about them. Money back AND a box of Black Magic should you buy something and discover we are wrong.
Approval Service: Obviously one needs to see pictures before buying them – wonderful as digital images are – and thus we are happy to discuss approval, subject to agreement. The client is asked to pay courier charges both ways and return unwanted pictures immediately. This service does not apply overseas.
