Antique Prints

Antique Prints offer fantastic opportunities for the inquisitive and imaginative collector. The many categories and genres can be a tool to connects history and culture. The famous publishers, printmakers, engravers, artists, and the fine colorists, tell an amazing story that is connected by many intertwined relationships and dynastic connections.

Antiquarian Maps

Our Antiquarian Maps include early cartographic maps by artists and cartographers possessed with legendary wanderlust, flair and imagination. We have maps from all over the world that convey an wide ranging timeline. We continue to build our rare map collection with a special focus on maps of Rhode Island, New England, New York and Virginia.

20th Century Artwork

The 20th Century brought technology that created changes in the world that are reflected in the material and design of the modern period. This period stretches from the late Victorian era and into the beginning of Art Nouveau, Cubism, Surrealism and Modern Art. These changes are reflected in the prints of the 20th century and in the changes of style by the artists of the Modern Era.

  • Andrew Spingarn
    Owner
    With a distinguished design and manufacturing career in fine jewelry and designer fashion jewelry, the continuation of research and sourcing of fine components into a collection was a natural progression to the World of Fine Prints and Maps.
  • Japanese & Asiana
    Woodblock Prints
    Collecting Prints of Japanese origin began with
    the assimilation to Asian Culture from early exposure. Immersed with Japanese objects and prints, it was easy to appreciate the fine quality, the beauty, and the delicate, yet strong, sensibilities of the Asian Culture
  • Children's Illustrations
    Whimsical Fantasy
    The 19th and 20th Century became known as the Golden Age of Children's Literature. These tales were meant to educate and entertain children. They conveyed moral values and information relevant to formative years. Myths, fables, legends, fairly tales, humor and romance are topics included in this collection.  
  • Contemporary Art
    Mid Century Modern
