Gimpel fils is a London art gallery founded by the brothers Peter and Charles Gimpel (nephews of Lord Duveen) on 26 November 1946 in honour of their father, the art dealer and collector, René Gimpel, who himself was the son of a Parisian art dealer and an acquaintance of Marcel Proust. Since 1972, it has been located at 30 Davies Street in Westminster just off Grosvenor Square. The first exhibition, ‘Five Centuries of French painting’ formed a small part of René Gimpel’s collection that he sent to England before the war, the bulk being lost in Paris, which included work by Degas, Monet and Camille Pissarro.
