At McDougall Fine Arts, the buying and selling take a back seat. What concerns us most is esthetics. We neither resemble your everyday art gallery nor do we treat works of art like one. Our collection is showcased as it is meant to be finally displayed. Rather than row after row of paintings that battle each other for your attention, McDougall Fine Arts chooses to hang each of our paintings in a real room, in a real home.
If you find Maritime Paintings fascinating, McDougall Fine Arts shares your interest. Founded in the early 1960s as McDougall Ship Models and Nautical Antiques, McDougall Fine Arts has been deeply involved with Maritime Paintings and American paintings since the very beginning. After selling the ship models business—present-day Lannan Ship Model Gallery, Boston, MA—our focus embraced fine arts of several other genres, and a wide variety of artists and sculptors.

Whether you are a private collector or an institutional buyer, McDougall Fine Arts believes that the only reason why people buy fine arts such as Maritime Paintings is because they simply fall in love with them. And the only reason why people fall in love with fine arts is because they are reflections of who buyers are.

At McDougall Fine Arts, the buying and selling take a back seat. What concerns us most is esthetics. We neither resemble your everyday art gallery nor do we treat works of art like one. Our collection is showcased as it is meant to be finally displayed. Rather than row after row of paintings that battle each other for your attention, McDougall Fine Arts chooses to hang each of our paintings in a real room, in a real home. The painting is allowed to be what it was destined to be: a key element of a spontaneous environment. Viewing our collection is therefore an experience that is as unique as it is enriching.

Our approach is summed up best by J. B. Phillips: “All . . . art of every true sort, bears witness to man's continual falling in love with beauty and his desperate attempt to induce beauty to live with him and enrich his common life.”

Our commitment to you extends beyond our walls. Our experience tells us that works of art such as Maritime Paintings can't be hung just anywhere in a spontaneous environment. The wrong environment and the wrong spot can undermine the beauty and impact of a work of art. McDougall Fine Arts, at your request, can also help you determine the best location for the works of art that you procure from us. Our suggestions may encompass changes such as repositioning of furniture and lighting fixtures.
