Louis-Dreyfus Family Collection 2019

Great collectors come along very rarely, and even more rarely with the open heart and generous spirit that William Louis-Dreyfus brought to each acquisition. I had the privilege and pleasure of having him visit the gallery and of selling him works of art, several of which are on view here now. We hope that the next generation of owners will appreciate each object the way William did. – Jill Newhouse William Louis-Dreyfus was a true collector. He went about building his collection with infectious enthusiasm and individuality, always open to look, think and consider what it was that made a work of art good, bad or indifferent. The result is a most personal collection, one in which each object reflects William’s idea of quality and commitment in the making of art, regardless of the art world’s ever shifting fads and fashions. – Fred Bancroft
