David Aaron

Founded in 1910, David Aaron is widely recognised as one of the oldest and most preeminent galleries in the world specialising in important and exquisite ancient works of art. Now based in Mayfair, London, the art gallery exhibits Classical Greek and Roman, Egyptian, Near Eastern, and Islamic works of art, as well as important items of natural history, such as dinosaur fossils. The gallery exhibits at highly vetted international art fairs, including TEFAF and Frieze Masters, and over the past century has played an instrumental role in helping major museums and private collections acquire and research important antiquities. Notable sales have been made to The Metropolitan Museum of Art, J. Paul Getty Museum, Louvre Abu Dhabi, The Aga Khan Museum, David Collection of Islamic Art, and Corning Museum.The gallery is also a member of IADAA (International Association of Dealers in Ancient Art) and ADA (Antiquities Dealers’ Association).David Aaron prides itself on exhibiting complete and rare dinosaur fossils of the highest quality, condition and provenance, applying art industry practices to the display and sale of prehistoric specimens. An important aspect of David Aaron’s presentation of dinosaurs is facilitating the advancement of scientific research. The gallery works closely with palaeontologists and the scientific community on access to and research of fossils. David Aaron's presentation of antiquities and pieces of natural history have led to significant historical discoveries and scientific breakthroughs including the discovery of a new dinosaur species in 2025, the Enigmacursor, which is now in the collection at the Natural History Museum.
