August Laube

Zurich

Booth N°22

Founded in 1922, August Laube is a third-generation antique gallery in Zurich with a long-standing commitment to quality, authenticity and careful selection. For over a century, our company has built its reputation by presenting works that reflect both artistic significance and cultural value, drawing inspiration from the standards set by previous generations.

We focus on classical modern art and old masters. This includes selected engravings, drawings and paintings that illustrate the evolution of visual culture through different periods. In addition to our art section, we also offer a selection of rare books whose craftsmanship and historical significance correspond to our overall approach. Whether works of art or books, each item we offer is carefully examined, both artistically and historically and technically, to ensure that its provenance and condition meet our standards.

Located on Kirchgasse in Zurich’s historic centre, just a few steps from the iconic Grossmünster, our premises offer a quiet and welcoming space to admire the works and discuss your collecting interests.
