a
project
for beauty

Beauty captivates and enchants, enduring the gaze of the observer. Yet, beauty is also ephemeral. As a second-generation art dealer at Ralph Gierhards Antique and Fine Art in Düsseldorf, I have dedicated my life's work to uncovering significant art objects from the 16th to early 20th centuries. My mission is to meticulously check their condition, provenance, and authenticity, and to restore their timeless beauty.
Ownership is the most intimate relationship that one can have to objects. Not that they come alive in him; It is he who live in them.

Walter Benjamin
