About The Limners Gallery

As an American folk art specialist, I would like to share an array of 19th century portraits that are ready for their next home. Every painting is identified and authenticated to the best of my ability, and many of the artists represented here - a.k.a. the early American "limners," both named and unnamed - have been the subject of my own scholarship. 
All portraits are represented as-is, photographed by myself, and immediately available.

My contact address & other websites are listed below. Feel free to get in touch!
