About Emanuel von Baeyer Ltd

Emanuel von Baeyer London was founded in 1998 and has since been
firmly established as a leading representative of the younger generation
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 works with a broad range of paintings, drawings
and prints all of which are of the highest quality and often rare and
distinguished examples. Areas of particular interest are: the School of
Fontainebleau, 17th and 18th century Italian prints, the Prague court of
Rudolph II and his artistic circle and German 17th century art.
Interest in this fuelled work on the Expressive Baroque period, a
Central-European movement of the first half of the 18th century, here
focussing on prints and drawings and paintings. Recently French 17th and
18th century art have been a central focus, as well as British art from
the same period. German 19th century culture is also a fascinating area
as it was constantly evolving and embracing movements such as early Romanticism, the Nazarenes, Biedermeier and Naturalism. Well-known names
from these areas are represented alongside contemporaneous works from
the French Romantics, Impressionists and fin-de-siècle artists.


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) and the International League of Antiquarian Booksellers (ILAB).
