Artem Rare Books

Artem Rare Books specialises in art and history on paper: rare books, manuscripts, autographs, prints, drawings and other paper artefacts. Based in the former United States Embassy in The Hague, we work with libraries, museums and private collectors worldwide. Our interests include colonial and transatlantic history, the Caribbean, slavery and abolition, women artists and authors, and the movement of ideas through print and manuscript. We also offer illustrated books and works on art, design and material culture. Founded by Hugo Rijpma, an art and book historian with experience at the Rijksmuseum and in the antiquarian book trade, Artem approaches each object through close examination and research. Our descriptions address its historical context, physical form, provenance and condition. Visitors are welcome by appointment at Lange Voorhout 102, 2514 EJ The Hague, The Netherlands. Complimentary worldwide FedEx shipping on all items.…
