Richard Green, 33 New Bond Street
Under the direction of Richard Green’s sons,
Jonathan and Matthew, 33 New Bond Street will
specialise in paintings by leading masters of British
and European 20th century art, reinforcing its
major role in this ever-expanding market. This is
the first purpose-built gallery in Bond Street since
the early 20th century, a confident statement of
Richard Green’s support of Mayfair and Bond
Street as the very heart of the international art
market.
Since the acquisition in 1993 of the freehold of
numbers 32 and 33 New Bond Street, it has been
Richard Green’s intention to develop the two
buildings as one. The project has been led and
directed by Richard Green’s brother John Green,
to whom designs from five leading architects were
submitted. In 2008, the Green family chose the
proposal prepared by George Saumarez Smith,
a director of ADAM Architecture; planning
permission was granted by Westminster City
Council in 2008.

Central panel of the frieze taken from Homer’s Odyssey by Alexander Stoddart
ADAM Architecture was the perfect choice for
such a sensitive site on a street whose buildings
reflect its history as a centre of fashionable life
and shopping for more than 300 years. While
the Portland stone façade of the building is
neo-classical, in keeping with the surrounding
streetscape, the interior has been designed to
display modern art and the enhanced provision for
natural light emphasises the spaciousness of the
galleries.
The façade of the new five-storey gallery provides
the architectural framework for The Prophecy of
Tiresias, three bas-reliefs by Alexander Stoddart,
Sculptor in Ordinary to the Queen in Scotland.
These illustrate scenes from Homer’s Odyssey (the
blind seer’s prophecy for Odysseus from Book
XI), which are presented as an allegory for the
development of modern art from 1900 to the
present day.
