About us
Barry Keene Gallery
Henley-on-Thames
We stock period and contemporary fine art - paintings, watercolours, drawings, etchings and prints including 18th century, Victorian, Edwardian, 20th century and contemporary, with recent paintings and sculpture by some of Britain's leading artists as well as international fine art.
It is always worth asking if you are looking for something in particular as we are never able to display all our stock in the gallery at the same time. We are also happy to arrange commissions.

Barry Keene started working in the art world in 1963 and, since opening the gallery in Henley-on-Thames in 1971, has sold many thousands of pictures to private individuals, collectors and art dealers throughout the world, as well as to galleries and museums. He is also an artist in his own right and his paintings can be viewed and are for sale in the gallery.
We carry out all services relating to pictures, specialising in all types of framing, including hand made bespoke frames as well as picture conservation, cleaning and restoration.
With 48 years' experience in the art world, which commenced with a five year Fine Art Trade Guild apprenticeship, Barry Keene is able to offer expert advice and help in choosing the right frame for your picture.

"Roger Fry, a critic at the beginning of the 20th century, defined what he called 'significant form', a quality of aesthetic harmony which distinguished true works of art from the mediocre. It seems to me that this is the criteria that governs Barry Keene's choice of paintings, rather than a preference for a particular style, subject or medium"
