The secret stories that works of art can tell – ABMB

Our selection of pieces with back stories that add interest as well as value.

Even though we are at an art fair, there is more to the works on show here than their price tags. There are many personal stories behind the paintings, sculptures and photographs on sale. Art historians are often interested in these stories, as they can reveal telling details about artists’ lives and ways of working, and about the history of the collectors, museums and institutions that owned the works.
