After a two-year hiatus, the marquee art and design fair made its return with an abundance of collectibles.
Back in March 2020, The European Fine Art Foundation’s annual fair was one of the earliest casualties of Covid-19. While, at the time, only one exhibitor was known to have contracted the illness, it would be over two years before the esteemed art fair—which brings together pre-eminent dealers of everything from Old Master paintings to 20th-century furniture—returned to its home base in the quaint Dutch town of Maastricht.
What sets TEFAF apart from other outings on the international art circuit is the variety of its exhibitors and its stringent vetting process. It is a fair for true collectors, those who aren’t simply interested in what’s buzzy but are astute about, say, 16th-century Flemish tapestries or French Art Deco design.
Certainly, there was an abundance of finds to be had. A handful of exceptional pieces garnered the most attention, such as a that had been missing since 1888, an early painting by Gustave Courbet and a work from Yayoi Kusama’sseries. But, then again, everything on display was exceptional—and some of the best discoveries were those that weren’t headliners. Here are eight of the more idiosyncratic treasures that caught our eye.
