ABOUT US

Tom Mendel read Theology and the History of Art at Clare College, Cambridge, before going on to run the Picture sales for an auction house in West London. Tom set up Nonesuch in 2020, and is now based on Duke Street Saint James's, where viewings are available by appointment during the week. We are pleased to offer advice to clients on works at auction, building their collections, and on private sales. The gallery specialises in works on paper from the 16th to 19th centuries; with a focus on landscape & topographical subjects, particularly those relating to 'The Grand Tour'. We exhibited as part of London Art Week, and participate in Master Drawings New York and the Trois Crayons Summer Exhibition.

Tom is the youngest member of the Society of London Art Dealers (SLAD), and has featured in both FRIEZE and CULTURED as part of features on a new generation of art dealers and the changing face of the Old Masters art market. He has a particular personal interest in paintings on vellum by Northern Italian artists of the 17th century and drawings of Rome by the Bentveughels and students at the Académie de France à Rome.

Tom was also previously the managing director of TROIS CRAYONS, a centralising space for all drawing-related activity worldwide, to facilitate and encourage engagement with the historic “father” of the arts.
