About Canon and Rare

Although a relative newcomer with just over a decade of market experience, Canon & Rare carries scholarly understanding that far surpasses this. It places us at the forefront of the discovery of new history in the art world. As such, the art and literature we sell is not merely for investment, but for its essence. We specialise in what has always been the passion here, and this is literary and representational arts. 

​

Canon & Rare work with only a handful of contemporary artists who in some way or other carry this in their work. So it is with the greatest of pleasure that we can introduce our customers to their work. You can follow this and our own journey in the coming weeks, months and years via the Canon & Rare blog.

​

Now at last we are delighted to invite you to explore our latest collection of the works that matter. The collection is ever-changing and in it you can discover literary first editions, original art and fine prints from the last two hundred years or so to now.
