Emanuel von Baeyer London was founded in 1998 and has since been firmly established as a leading representative of old master dealers. Emanuel von Baeyer deals principally in fine European drawings, prints and paintings from the fifteenth through the twentieth century. We also handle select postwar and contemporary art, showing interest in both established and emerging artists.
Emanuel von Baeyer conducts his business from his premises in St Johns Wood, London, where he is always glad to receive visitors by appointment. In 2024 he opened an exhibition space at 18 Cecil Court in central London which hosts regular group and solo exhibitions as well as events. His clientele includes older and younger generations of private collectors, art historians and museum curators from institutions around the world. He is now widely recognized as an innovative dealer within his field and has published numerous specialist sales catalogues. His activities are regularly featured in the international press (see press coverage). He has provided expert opinion for private individuals and for legal purposes, and is happy to act on a client's behalf on purchases and other matters (see client services). The company is sensitive to the issue of restitution and its implications.
Emanuel von Baeyer Cabinet was launched in 2010 as an extension of Emanuel von Baeyer London’s regular activities. It serves as a platform for online exhibitions, profiling different aspects of our extensive inventory. With each exhibition focused around a singular artist, group show or theme, the Cabinet website stages two simultaneous online exhibitions: First Floor and Second Floor. Our aim is that these different exhibitions highlight the breadth of our interests, and further enable us to experiment with unexplored artistic materials and introduce new and overlooked artists of current significance. In keeping with these objectives, works on display range from old master to contemporary prints and drawings. It also features photographs, archive material, writings, and ephemera.
Emanuel von Baeyer regularly participates in the London Original Print Fair, Frieze Masters London, Master Drawings Week in London and New York, IFPDA Print Fair New York, Antiquarian Booksellers Associations (ABA), TEFAF, Maastricht and Stuttgarter Antiquariatsmesse. He is also a member of the International Fine Print Dealers Association (IFPDA), the International League of Antiquarian Booksellers (ILAB), The Society of London Art Dealers (SLAD) and the Chambre Syndicale de l'Estampe, du Dessin et du Tableau (CSEDT). He has held exhibitions in the United Kingdom, Europe and America (see exhibition list).
