History
Throughout the 1930s and 1940s, The Phyllis Lucas Gallery served as a print gallery and publishing house specializing in French etchings. In the early 60s, the gallery worked exclusively with Salvador Dali as the North American publisher of the artist's limited edition lithographs. Today, the Gallery continues to carry a wide range of antique, modern and contemporary works. Unlike many other galleries, we take the time to walk our clients through the selection and framing of their pieces. We are extremely knowledgeable and experienced in our field, and can provide you with expertise that can't be found elsewhere. Our passion for antique and contemporary art is evident in our enthusiasm for helping our clients.
