Rare & Out-of-Print Art Books
Our art shelves gather used, rare and antiquarian titles spanning painting, sculpture, illustration and the lives of individual artists. You will find monographs, exhibition catalogues and richly illustrated studies, from J.G. Links on Canaletto to Terence Doherty's The Anatomical Works of George Stubbs.
Alongside the old masters, the collection reaches into American and wildlife art, including Mildred D. Ladner's William de la Montagne Cary: Artist on the Missouri River and J.F. Lansdowne's Birds of the Northern Forest. Editions range from later reprints to scarce first printings and cloth-bound hardcovers, with plates and reproductions that make many of these volumes collectible in their own right.
Because every book is used or rare, condition and availability vary from copy to copy, and each title is described individually. Order your copy online while it lasts.
