Robin Hereford

Spear’s Review

Robin Hereford’s experience in the art world spans over a quarter of a century. Before joining MEUM as a consultant, he worked at Bonhams, including as director of private clients. 

Hereford’s expertise lies in art valuation, sales and acquisitions; he also advises on insurance, tax and heritage. This appeals to a wide clientele, including landed gentry who are considering opening up their houses and taking stock of their collections, as well as many UHNW families, collectors and institutional clients. Hereford’s own collections management business complements his offering at MEUM, and over the years he has seen fabulous artwork – from Old Master paintings to French porcelains – come through his doors.

Hereford highlights that since art is so personal, ‘there is no one-size-fits-all approach’, which is why he makes sure to engage in an in-depth consultation with clients in order to build a meaningful collection.
