TEFAF Maastricht – March 2025

Not long after my trip to Paris to attend IAMC 25, I travelled to the Netherlands for a very different art affair – TEFAF Maastricht.

This prestigious art fair gathers some of the best of art connoisseurs, collectors and curators in old master paintings and drawings, antiques, ancient art and manuscripts., alongside exquisite jewellery from Cartier.

My favourite booth was undoubtedly Steinitz, Paris, an extravagant baroque/roccocco setting which reminded me a little of Phantom of the Opera, and of course felt familiar after having just spent a long weekend in Paris.

I was also excited to finally see the antique arms on armour on display from London gallery Peter Finer, showcasing some fine German armour as well as a few Samurai pieces.

Sam Fogg was also there with its medieval sculptures, and pieces from St Paul’s Cathedral..

Galerie Ary Jan was also at TEFAF displaying paintings from the belle epoque.

Meanwhile, White Cube made its modern art impact.

The entrance for TEFAF was itself an impressive immersive artwork, welcoming visitors with garlands of fresh flowers cascading from the walls. unsurprisingly it was a feature for people to photograph themselves.

I look forward to attending again in future.
