I called the owner regarding a collection of lesser vaued oil paintings my Mother needs to sell. The owner allowed me to bring a few peices in and gave quick FMV range estimate for each of them free of charge. Very friendly, offered sound advice that even an art novice like myself could relate to. Thumbs up to Covington Fine Arts Gallery & Appraisal!

WOW I have never in my life came across such rude people I called the gallery to find out if they are interested in "Old Antique 1600's maps of the British Isles" and was rudely told by the owner that he didn't know what I was talking about... im sorry is my British Accent to sophisticated for you??Seemed although all he wanted to do was get me off the phone as quick as possible I would recommend researching who John Speed is and then feel very sorry for yourself that you didn't snap up the opportunity to look at his work.

This is a wonderful gallery, that specializes in 19th and 20th Century fine art. Fine art includes those works that are primarily for aesthetic reason (art for art's sake) rather then for commercial of functional use. Designed for it's uplifting, life-enhancing qualities, fine art typically denotes the traditional, Western European 'high arts' such as drawing, painting, printmaking, and sculpture.....in case you had any questions about what defines 'fine art'.The owner is extremely knowledgeable, completely honest and straight to the point. The gallery has a lovely selection of paintings, drawings, fine prints to name a few. The Gallery is also able to consign artwork based on the value and the market for it. The owner works with Christie's Auction House, and Sotherby's to name a few. I would suggest calling to make an appointment, as opposed to dropping in. When I called to inquiry about the value and possible consignment of an oil painting, he was accommodating, helpful and knowledgeable. Granted I did some extensive research prior to contacting the gallery so I had an idea of the paintings value prior to my visit. Covington Gallery is not Antiques Road Show were you bring in weekly yard sale finds for a big payout."The emphasis of the Gallery is on works by listed European artists and American artists and art of the West, Southwest, California, regionalism, New England, Hudson River School, Midwestern, the South, upper-Midwest and the Northwest.The Gallery also is skilled at Fine Art Appraisals and has an Accredited Appraiser qualified to do Insurance, Estate, Donation and Fair Market Value Art Appraisals." -Covington Gallery Website
