General Info
For over thirty-five years William Vareika Fine Arts Ltd has offered the finest museum quality historical art to collectors and museums from around the world. Bill and Alison Vareika opened William Vareika Fine Arts Ltd in 1987 on famed Bellevue Avenue in Newport, Rhode Island principally to showcase the work of the important 18th, 19th and early 20th century American artists who were attracted to and inspired by the rich history, unique society, and natural beauty of Newport and the Narragansett Bay region. Groundbreaking Vareika exhibits of the works of these artists have inspired the recognition of “The Newport and Narragansett Bay School” of American art and established Bill Vareika as the authority in the field. The Vareika gallery has also mounted several major exhibitions of the art of two of the most important nineteenth century artists associated with Newport, John La Farge and William Trost Richards, and they have probably handled more works by these artists than any other art dealers in history. The business quickly developed a national reputation as “The Newport Gallery of American Art,” consistently dealing artworks reflecting three centuries of the American experience to some of the most important art connoisseurs and museums in the country, while also regularly advising and working with novice and beginning art collectors. Most of the gallery exhibitions were mounted to help to raise public consciousness about and funding for a host of vital non-profit organizations with which the Vareika’s were affiliated.For over thirty-five years William Vareika Fine Arts Ltd has offered the finest museum quality historical art to collectors and museums from around the world.

Overall
First Class Gallery

The William Vareika Gallery has always had world class american art from the 19th century on display and for sale. They have recently doubled their size to represent European art as well. This gallery is well worth a visit for any serious collector of art who is visiting Newport.
