Update: Merrin Gallery on Facebook

The Merrin Gallery's Official Facebook Page.

In December, we announced the Merrin Gallery's Facebook page, today we have a small announcement that the Facebook page has somewhat grown, and also appears to have a new URL/username, in place of the old one.

The new Merrin Gallery's Facebook page can now be found at simply: facebook.com/MerrinGallery. You can learn more about the Merrin Gallery there, and get updates directly from the owners on new happenings, and online resources concerning the ancient art business.

One particular update we noticed from last time, is that the different types of art offered at the NYC Merrin Gallery is in a list-form, which really adds to the effect of showing-off their vast antiquities collections on offer:

The Merrin Gallery offers exceptional antiquities that represent more than 7,000 years of history. Highly esteemed as the top gallery for pre-Columbian art, The Merrin Gallery specializes in the finest art from the cultures of:

• ancient Greece,
• ancient Rome,
• the Near East,
• ancient Egypt,
• Meso-America,
• South America.

Samuel Merrin's Favorite Art

The Merrin Gallery's official YouTube channel has just come out with a video featuring an ancient Maya war vase, one of the owner's, Samuel Merrin's favorite pieces of art. The video provides an all-around view of the object, and features a map showing the location where it was found - Nebaj in Guatemala, South America. The vase is 3000 years old, and shows a battle scene, which is supposedly "a rare subject matter in works of the ancient Maya civilization".
