Edward Merrin, former director of the
Edward H. Merrin Gallery on Manhattan's 5th Avenue, holds an
impressive history in the acquisition of antiquities. A keen
appreciation of ancient art has inspired the dramatic, almost
cinematic energy that Merrin has exhibited in auction houses like
Christie's and Sotheby's, and this energy has been documented in
national publications like The New York Times for decades. As the
heir to the Merrin Gallery (formerly the Edward H. Merrin Gallery),
Edward
Merrin's son Sam Merrin is also the beneficiary of the many
resources of his father. Edward Merrin, pre-eminent art acquisition
expert and auction-house savant, has acquired through his years in
the industry a wealth of knowledge and experience.
