Arte-Fact Fine Art at BRAFA 2026 — Forgotten Stories: A Tribute to Connections

BRAFA Art Fair is delighted to spotlight Arte-Fact Fine Art, a new exhibitor whose expertise and scholarship bring fresh depth to the world of Old Master paintings.

Specialised in works from the 16th to the 18th century, Arte-Fact Fine Art combines connoisseurship with rigorous research, guiding collectors through the interconnected histories of artists, patrons, courts, and cultures. Their approach embraces not only the market but the full ecosystem of attribution, provenance, conservation, and interdisciplinary study.

For BRAFA 2026, the gallery presents Forgotten Stories — a compelling journey across Europe’s artistic centres - from the glory of the Dutch Golden Age, through the artistic flourishing of Antwerp and the court of Brussels, to the creative exchanges with Spain and Italy.

A special focus is dedicated to female voices in art history — as essential contributors whose impact continues to resonate.

“Old Master paintings hold a magic beyond their beauty; they whisper forgotten stories and timeless inspirations. For the visitors of BRAFA, we hope to create a bridge across time, connecting them to the artists and stories of centuries past,” says Claudia Walendy, founder of Arte-Fact Fine Art.

Tune in here and discover how these works reveal connections that bind centuries together — and join us at BRAFA where art history becomes a living encounter.
