Robert Young is one of the leading UK dealers in folk art but each year, rather like taking coals to Newcastle, he exports this speciality across the Atlantic to the Winter Antiques Show where he has been an exhibitor since 2001. ATG asked why he has made a beeline for this fair over the last 17 years.
among the pieces that will be taken by Robert Young to The Winter Antiques Show will be this 20in x 2ft (53 x 63cm) framed British naïve school still-life of c.1880. A Quiet Supper features a ploughman’s meal. The oil on canvas is priced at $8500.
