Karen Taylor Fine Art’s exhibition British Women Artists, 1750–1950 coincides with the exhibition of the Tate Britain’s Now You See Us: Women Artists in Britain, 1520–1920. It will include a number of scientific works by Sarah Stone and others; portraiture, which provided the livelihood for many female artists from the 18th century to Laura Knight; and landscapes from a wide range of female artists.

Karen Taylor is a private dealer in British and topographical art, principally works on paper, with a particular interest in works of historic and geographical importance and British women artists. She works by appointment in London and is proud to include major institutions in the USA, UK, and Europe amongst her regular customers. Karen worked in the British drawings department at Sotheby’s and after 10 years moved to Spink, where she ran the picture department. In 1999, she established Karen Taylor Fine Art, and regularly exhibits at fairs in London and holds exhibitions during London Art Week.

The related catalogue includes an introduction by Paris Spies-Gans.
