Further Details

TALISMAN FINE ART & TALISMAN SYMBOLIST STUDIES is both ONLINE GALLERY & ART DEALERS and an ART HISTORY SOURCE, particularly for SYMBOLIST ART, ART NOUVEAU PICTURES, ART DECO PICTURES, THE ART OF ILLUSTRATION, EROTIC ART AND ILLUSTRATION and PASTORAL AND VISIONARY ART.  We specialise in works 1850 – 1940, and these are mainly on paper, with a special emphasis on the Symbolist Art Movement and Art Deco Imagery. We also show the pictures of a select group of contemporary artists whose work resonates with these styles, such as SEAN JEFFERSON, VERA JEFFERSON,  and the pastoral artist JANE WISNER. In the EROTIC ART section there can be found excellent examples of the art of ANTHONY CHRISTIAN, ERICH VON GOTHA, LYNN PAULA RUSSELL, TOM POULTON, VANIA ZOURAVLIOV, and new artists we discover.

WE PROVIDE AS WELL, STUDY MORNINGS, DAYS, AND INDIVIDUAL LECTURES ABOUT ART HISTORY, ILLUSTRATED BY SLIDES OR POWERPOINT. The individual lectures can range over various aspects of the history of art, but as TALISMAN SYMBOLIST STUDIES we specialise in art historical talks and study events that focus on the SYMBOLIST ART MOVEMENT of the late 19th and early 20th Centuries. Please contact us for details of forthcoming talks.

We deal in pictures mainly from the ‘online galleries’ that are on our website. Let us know if you wish to be on our mailing list, either for news of new work being shown or for lectures that we are organizing. Click here to contact us CONTACT US

Talisman Fine Art began twenty five years ago with a gallery in West Hampstead, London. We are now mainly an internet gallery with appointments that can be made, if required, in central London. Our name derives from the symbolic associations to the word “Talisman”, and also from a painting by the French artist Paul Sérusier. This was a tiny picture on a cigar box lid which he made under the tutelage of the great Symbolist Paul Gauguin, and which was felt by his colleagues to be such a ground breaking work that they called it “The Talisman”.

Please watch this section of the website for all forthcoming events or contact us if you would like the information regularly sent to you.
