The History Of A Nottingham Gallery

The history of a Nottingham art gallery as it moved and evolved over twenty five years to one of the most prominent studios in the country.

The proprietor, learnt remarkably quickly the work that was highly regarded and sought after as an investment as opposed to decorative paintings and prints that many galleries were selling, and still do sell.

The success of the business led him to move closer into the city, and a gallery, still named International fine arts was opened opposite the Victoria centre.

Highly sought after work of the finest quality by world renowned artists, L.S.Lowry, David Shepherd and Sir William Russell Flint; The reputation of International fine arts was built on quality and service. Several exhibitions were held... an exhibition by Gordon King was tremendously successful and led to the internationally renowned artist David Shepherd diplaying a collection of his work and doing a chat show to an audience of over 500...

The demand for fine quality paintings and signed, limited editions, led the company to move to the centre of Nottingham city, in the Market square, to a large and beautifully prestigeous gallery. Business boomed, even through the 1990's recession, and with the help of two staff, we eventually found ourselves working seven days a week... The public and trade both recognized 'International fine arts as one of the finest galleries in England.

Concentrating on work by renowned artists and whose work was so sought after that a healthy secondary market continually increased prices. International fine arts would offer the best that was available not only in the art world, but for framing too.

A large and very successful publisher bought the gallery in 1996 for a 'foothold' in the city for their retail arm.. The proprietor, was able to eventually use this opportunity to supply both the trade and retail customers with a selection of work by the few most sought after artists in the country, namely, L.S.Lowry, David Shepherd, and Sir William Russell Flint.

With huge collections of work by these three artists, the new company was formed 'Cornwater fine art'. Word soon spread, and should a customer be looking for a painting or signed, limited edition by any of these three artists, it was often said that there was only one place to go... The internet made leaps forward in the comunication and trading of works worldwide for Cornwater fine art...

Many clients from Europe, America and Australia .... other than visiting the studio in person, valuable work was now accessible and easily viewed. A stock of over 500 limited editions and originals by Sir William Russell Flint, over 500 signed, limited editions and original paintings by David Shepherd and well over 100 L.S.Lowry signed, limited editions keeps the business in the forefront of today's buoyant art market.
