Antonacci Lapiccirella Fine Art was founded in 2012 from the merger of two historic art galleries already present on the international market for several generations. Through targeted research and study, the gallery quickly consolidated its position to become a reference point for the fans of “Grand Tour” paintings, as well as drawings and sculptures from the late 18th to the first half of the 20th century. Over the years, several catalogs dedicated to artists of this period have been published, making use of the collaborations of important reference experts.
Francesca and Damiano are tireless seekers of beauty, the unique, and the rare. Theirs is a decidedly eclectic approach, in which an aesthetic sense of great refinement makes their proposals particularly recognizable.
Over the years, the gallery has taken part in the most prestigious of antiques exhibitions such as the Salon du Dessin and the Biennale des Antiquaires in Paris, Masterpiece London, and TEFAF New York; it also exhibits regularly at TEFAF Maastricht and at the International Biennial of Antiques in Palazzo Corsini, Florence. In the course of its activity, many of its works have joined major public collections such as the National Gallery in Washington, the Getty Museum in Los Angeles, the Modern Art Gallery of Palazzo Pitti in Florence, the Polo Museale Fiorentino, the Capodimonte Museum in Naples, the Prague Museum, the Villa Mansi Museum in Lucca, the Fontainebleau Museum, the Hamburger Kunsthalle in Hamburg, the Musée D'Orsay, the Uffizi Gallery in Florence, the Toledo Museum of Art, USA, Cincinnarti Art Museum, Minneapolis Institute of Art as well as numerous private collections.
