NEW YORK FOREVER: Important Paintings of the World’s City

 Questroyal Fine Art 

 November 10 - December 30


In this exhibition and sale, twenty of the most revered American painters of the past three centuries have brought a fragment of New York City’s essence to canvas. New York, the city of the world, is as enduring as the rock it rests upon, at the edge of the sea, the forefront of memory, and the summit of aspirations. The New York Yankees, the Metropolitan Museum of Art, Lincoln Center, Carnegie Hall, Broadway, Wall Street, all are part of the city with an appeal that spans the globe. One that was—and remains—a beacon promising solace to the oppressed and hope to many dreamers. Questroyal presents visions of our city by Guy C. Wiggins, Wolf Kahn, Hayley Lever, Reginald Marsh, Alfred S. Mira, and Fairfield Porter, among others. NEW YORK FOREVER: Important Paintings of the World’s City will remain on view through December 30 at Questroyal’s expansive galleries at 903 Park Avenue. 

For guests unable to visit in person, a virtual exhibition is available at www.questroyalfineart.com. Also on view at Questroyal through the end of the year is The American Masters, fifty exceptional paintings by America’s 19th- and 20th-century masters, and Captivating Shores: Tom Yost Reveals Connecticut’s Coast, an extensive a survey of Connecticut’s shoreline. Exhibition catalogues for all shows are available by request.
