About

Prince & Pilgrim is an independent gallery celebrating the best in contemporary art. Set on Richmond Hill, we offer a calming space for seasoned collectors and newcomers alike to discover one of a kind pieces. 

 

Founded in 1995 by four friends united by a love of art, Prince & Pilgrim began as a series of pop-up exhibitions in West London. These one-off events blossomed into a full time commercial endeavor, stemming from a love of originality, quality and family. The grounding ethos? Every home deserves good, original art.

 

Today, nearly 30 years later, Prince & Pilgrim continues to promote, display, and appreciate contemporary artists, both emerging and established. As the first London gallery to feature the works James Mortimer and Holly Razavi, we continue to champion exciting new creative talent. We have held shows across the UK and America, and have recently exhibited several emerging French artists.

 

Since inheriting the gallery from her mum and founder, Mimi Harris, Elizabeth Dacre has brought many new artists into the fold. From Liz Crossfield to Jitka Palmer, Prince & Pilgrim artists are distinguished by their singularity and evocative nature, their ability to spark joy or pique curiosity through a sense of play and naivety. Our artists brilliantly employ colour, drawing viewers in. Their work is distinctive, oftentimes challenging form and convention while demonstrating an outstanding technical and  emotional proficiency. Many of our artists are storytellers, conveying innate truths through their works and helping to make art more accessible for all.

 

Now permanently based on Richmond Hill, Prince & Pilgrim has become a place where people can explore new art, take part in a creative workshop, or simply enjoy a cup of tea within a beautiful and domestic space. As Director, Elizabeth draws on her curatorial expertise to both discover and display art, infusing the physical space with aesthetical interest, dynamism and life. She and her team can find the perfect pieces for a client's home, offering bespoke commissions and advice across different artistic media.
