David Findlay Galleries

The David Findlay Galleries has long been associated with fine painting. The gallery was founded in Kansas City, Missouri in 1870 by William Wadsworth Findlay as The Findlay Art Company. Since 1938 the business has been known as the David Findlay Galleries and located in New York City. Michael N. Findlay, the fifth generation in the family art business, is the president and owner.

The focus of the gallery is to show works by contemporary American and French color oriented (figurative) representational artists who have been influenced by the Impressionists, Expressionists and the Fauves. Currently, 18 artists form the main core of our gallery artists. We primarily show oil on canvas paintings and also carry lithographs by our gallery artists. The French contemporary painters who we represent – Bardone, Lesieur and Muhl – have all shown with us for at least forty years.

The subject of the paintings that we carry is color. And, the subject-matter of the paintings includes still lifes, landscapes and interiors.
