Sale Overview
‘Dramas of Light and Land: The Martyn Gregory Collection of British Art is a remarkable survey of British art, predominantly works on paper, from the 18th-20th Centuries. A true connoisseur collector-dealer, Martyn’s notable eye is well-known in the field, and has allowed him to gather a collection which successfully spans centuries and movements to tell a broad and far-reaching story of the history of British art. Landscape is the dominant theme throughout, reaching from Thomas Gainsborough to John and Paul Nash, but portraiture, still-life and interiors are also represented. The strength and breadth of the collection, as well as the remarkable condition and presentation of the pictures, are testament to Martyn’s skill and knowledge as a dealer and expert.’
