Didier Aaron & Cie (stand 347) - Director: Desmarest Bruno

Didier Aaron & Cie was founded in Paris in 1923. It now extends to the three major capitals of the artistic world and the art market: London, New York, and Paris. 
Hervé Aaron, directs everything from New York, still pursuing the eclectic tradition which has always prevailed in the company. One finds unique pieces of XVIIIth century French "Grand Goût" furniture and important works from 19th century, as well as French and Italian paintings and drawings. Although the pieces in the gallery may span centuries, styles, and origins, they are all chosen for their quality.
