Jennifer Paige, for the Maxfield Parrish Family Trust says: This is the largest collection of original Parrish art available for sale and it is on exhibition (by Appointment only).

There are over 60 orginal paintings, and the single largest collection of Vintage pieces, with over 800 items in pure vintage condition. Judy Goffman Cutler is the Gallery Director and curated the major exhibition 'Maxfield Parrish: A Retrospective' which toured Asia and concluded at the Norman Rockwell Museum two years ago.

The gallery handles all the great original art from the Golden Age of American Illustration and is suggested as a 'must see' by museums, auction houses and the like, as well as collectors and artists, and other gallery owners, as the best source for the best in American Illustration nationally.

American Illustrators Gallery and Laurence S Cutler AIA RIBA, have loaned two large murals, never exhibited before, from 'A Florentine Fete' to The National Arts Club, in New York City's Gramercy Park, where they may be viewed with advance appointment.

It measures 15 x 49 feet. It's one of only three such murals executed under the direction of Louis Comfort Tiffany. Work was begun in 1914 and it was dedicated in 1916. The mural is composed of 100,000 pieces of glass in 260 colors.

I'm told that "they do have some Parrishes, but not many (maybe two or three) in their permanent collection. I seem to recall they were a couple of his Jello illustration and a sandwich board type construct for a restaurant. This was a couple of years ago, however."
