Cambridgeshire Art Fair returns to Chilford Hall, Linton in June and will feature work by 400 artists from around the world, including major talents such as Pablo Picasso and Tracey Emin, as well as a host of up-and-coming new artists.
Forty-seven galleries representing six nations will showcase more than 3,000 artworks for sale, from oil paintings, drawings and watercolours to photography, glassware and metalwork.
Prices start at £100, providing visitors with the perfect opportunity to enhance their existing collection or to make their first art purchase.
The Fair, which runs from June 5 to 8, will feature work from highly collected artists including Pablo Picasso, Henry Matisse, Banksy and internationally-celebrated glass artist and designer, Bertil Valien.
There will also be an exhibition by renowned Italian artist Armando Farina – who has work on permanent display in the Vatican Pinacoteca – to celebrate his 80th birthday, and work for sale by Sir Roger de Grey, president of the Royal Academy from 1984 to 1993.
