The International Show 2015
The International Show (Oct. 23-29)
A staple in New York’s fall season for 26 years, the International Show presents spectacular fine art, antiques, silver, ceramics, carpets, jewelry and other unique collectors’ items. This year’s iteration comes with a new look, having simplified and shortened its title to its long-time moniker “The International Show” and debuted “The International Circle” as a complementary special event for young collectors. The Park Avenue Armory, an extraordinary landmark in the Gothic Revival style, serves as the perfect location combining historicism and convenience for the mix of international collectors, interior designers and savvy shoppers perusing the fair.
We spoke to Anna Haughton, an antiques dealer and fair organizer since the early 1980s, in advance of this year’s show. Haughton explains that she and her husband Brian are “excited to officially celebrate the category of Design as a full-fledged collecting area at the fair” in 2015. Additionally, “jewelry is a perennial favorite at the International Show and the jewelry dealers on exhibition have made wonderful longstanding clients in New York as a result of the fair.” Among the covetable baubles showcased are rare signed jewels, Victorian brooches and Art Deco engagement rings.
In honor of the fair, which runs from October 23 through 29, our editors have curated a selection of pieces from our participating dealers. Below, browse sophisticated library chairs, silk paintings, Tiffany lamps, Boucheron bracelets and more unique finds to amplify your collection.

Provence landscape , 1946 - oil paint, 46x61 cm.
By Maurice Mendjinzky
Located in Nice, FR
Oil painting on hardboard depicting a Provence landscape with olive trees and hills. Signed on left side low.
Maurice Mendjizky, was born on July 20th 1890 a Lodz in Polonie and died on may 8th in Saint-Paul-de-Vence (Alpes-Maritimes, France).
A museum is tributed to him, the Mendjisky - Ecole de Paris museum, in Paris.
He lived in St. Paul de Vence and good friend with Renoir, Signac, Modigliani and Picasso
Au départ passionné de musique, il part dès son plus jeune âge à Berlin étudier dans une école de composition. Mais, excellent dessinateur, il s’intéresse finalement à la peinture et part pour Paris. Entre 1906 et 1907, il fait un rapide passage dans l'atelier de Fernand Cormon à l'École des beaux-arts de Paris.
Il quitte vite l'atelier pour une vie plus libre où il travaille beaucoup et se fait rapidement remarquer par les grands marchands de l’époque. Il expose chez Georges Petit en 1912. La préface du catalogue est d’André Salmon. Ces mêmes années, il fait la connaissance de Léopold Zborowski, un des grands marchands d'art de l'époque et devient l’ami de Amedeo Modigliani, Pablo Picasso, Auguste Renoir.
En effet, c'est en 1913 qu'il rencontre Renoir. Ce dernier l’invite régulièrement chez lui aux Collettes, à Cagnes-sur-Mer. Enthousiasmé par la lumière et l’atmosphère de la Côte d’Azur, Maurice Mendjizky incite ses camarades, Modigliani, Chaïm Soutine, Léonard Foujita à le rejoindre. Après un séjour en Pologne et Russie, il revient à Paris et rencontre la Alice Prin...
