Christopher Bishop Fine Art
Christopher Bishop has emerged as one of the best young eyes in the field in the past decade. Specializing in Old Master Drawings, he has gained a reputation during this period for important new discoveries. His keen understanding of historical materials and styles has allowed him to uncover an uncanny number of sleepers in the auction houses and private collections of America and Europe. Honed during his years crisscrossing New England to find fresh works, his nose for important, forgotten works is an extension of his study of 17th and 18th century Italian and French art at Yale. Part art of memory, part perseverance, the connoisseurship which he practices is a learned skill reinforced through repetition and discipline.
