Henry B. Pettes
active late 19th century
twenty years as an art dealer, aims to
meet the demand for GENUINE WORKS
OF ART IN WATER COLORS, not
necessarily of high cost, but carefully
selected to combine artistic merit with
desirability of subject.
INFERIOR PICTURES WITH
GREAT NAMES ATTACHED are not
found in his collections. Mr. Pettes’
exceptional advantage of having the
whole country for a market, enables him
to keep his stock constantly refreshed by
new importations, invariably his personal
selection. His prices will be found to
be moderate when the artistic
quality of the picture and reputation of
the artist are considered. "
