Step into the enchanting world of the antique dealer, where history comes alive and treasures from centuries past await. From St. Odo of Canterbury, the Patron saint of dealers in antiques and old clothes, to the eccentric Henry Constantine Jennings, these individuals have dedicated their lives to preserving and showcasing the beauty of bygone eras. In a vibrant lithograph from 1910, we witness Death himself observing as antiquarians exhume a king's corpse from a crypt in a church. This haunting image serves as a reminder that even in death, history continues to captivate our imaginations. The prints market flourished during the 18th century with lithography taking center stage. Artists skillfully captured scenes like curio hunting in Nuremberg or an antiquarian proudly displaying his cabinet of curiosities. These prints not only provide glimpses into past times but also serve as windows into different cultures and regions. Gyula Tornai's painting transports us to Marseille's foundation looks of Provence where an antique dealer meticulously examines each piece for its historical significance. The attention to detail is evident as he carefully handles artifacts that hold stories untold. Eduardo Vianella's masterpiece "Le magasin de curiosite" invites us inside a curiosity shop filled with wonders waiting to be discovered. This Italian artwork showcases how these shops were gathering places for art enthusiasts seeking unique pieces that would ignite their imagination. From paintings capturing China's brocanner or art lover surrounded by vases, shells, antique bronzes, books, and carpets; to an engraving depicting Death engaging with an antiquary - every piece tells its own story within this vast world of antiquities. As we explore these captivating images spanning centuries and continents, we come face-to-face with those who dedicate themselves to unearthing hidden gems from our collective pasts. The antique dealer is more than just a purveyor of objects.
