Stair Sainty Gallery

The Stair Sainty Gallery collection, formed by Guy Stur-Sainty in 1981, spans the early Renaissance through the early twentieth century. The gallery's London and New York sections feature François Boucher's lighthearted sceneries, Giovanni-Batista Tiepolo's vedettes, and harsh Spanish still lifes. The Louvre Museum, the National Gallery of London, and the Metropolitan Museum of New York are among the gallery's client museums, and the roster of shows indicates the most interesting trends in European art.

The court painters of the French kings, the Italian school "macchiaioli" (scenes of the national liberation fight, painted freely and passionately in 1860-1880), and literary reminiscences in nineteenth-century French painting – none of these can be described as the art market's tortuous paths. The gallery's motto is "uniqueness in whatever we do".
