Daniel Crouch Rare Books will mark the opening of their New York Gallery at 24 East 64th Street with a launch party on Burns Night (25 January 2017). A small selection of Celtic cartography will be on display, in keeping with the traditional Scottish celebration, as well as the gallery’s reputation as specialist dealers in fine and rare antique maps, plans, sea charts and voyages.

It was hanging there with majesty, an imposing size, a jaw-dropping blue: our favorite blue piece at the Frieze Art Show 2015 was a gigantic blue map presented by Daniel Crouch Rare Books, a specialist dealer in antique atlases, maps, plans, sea charts and voyages dating from the 15th to the 19th centuries.

London: Fourteen pre-eminent British art and antique dealers will cross the pond with a veritable treasure chest of paintings, jewelry, rare maps, sculpture and furniture – all for the purpose of enticing buyers attending the 25th edition of the International Art and Antique Dealers Show, the 7‑day extravaganza that opens on October 25.

Rare maps and atlases have an enduring appeal and can offer a safe haven for your money.

A name to note for 2011, Daniel Crouch of Daniel Crouch Rare Books, who until last September worked for noted London antiquarian books and maps specialist Bernard Shapero.

20 Things Not to Miss in New York’s Art World This Week

William Smith’s 1815 map of England and Wales represents a milestone in geological history and a pivotal moment in its creator’s colourful life.

Upper East Side rare book dealer Daniel Crouch is preparing to auction the most expensive map ever to hit the market. And it’s a pretty incredible piece of NYC history.

IN 2012, Amanda Sharp and Matthew Slotover, the founders of Frieze—the colourful, sometimes raucous art fair in Regent’s Park, London—launched a new, overlapping event nearby. Frieze Masters, they hoped, would demonstrate the ways in which old art influences what is being made now. In this context, ​“old”, like historic or traditional, is relative: 1999 is the fair’s cut-off point.

Collectors and connoisseurs descending on TEFAF next month will not be disappointed, with objects of every time and place, from a Han bronze lamp to Gangnam Style.
