TEFAF - THE EUROPEAN FINE ART FOUNDATION While we were in Amsterdam, we took the 2.5hr train ride from Central Station to Maastricht, in the very southern part of The Netherlands, then spent the day at TEFAF, The European Fine Art Fair. We were amazed by what we saw and heard. The galleries that attend this show keep their finest pieces of work for this event - items that may not have been seen for decades as they have been in a private collection in someone's mansion or chateau. A French fellow was looking at a rather beaten-up, antique chair and explaining to the owner of the piece that he was seeking a chair to use at his desk in his office in Paris. The chair owner explained to him which King Louis had owned it originally and where it had been in the last 60 years and that it was only E60,000.00 - or to us, that's a meager US$100,000.00. Hey, we'll take two! This is an annual event and most worthwhile for anyone with a deep appreciation for some of the world's most exquisite collector's items.
