The New York Times’s report from Maastricht does its best to put a bright face on the fair but a somber tone keeps slipping in. Here’s Scott Reyburn’s take in a paragraph:

“It seems a lot more local this year,” said the London dealer Richard Nagy, a specialist in modern German and Austrian art, echoing the observation by other exhibitors that the Tefaf 2017 crowd was dominated by middle-aged European visitors. With few affluent Americans, Asians and Russians attending, sales were down for many of the dealers interviewed for this article.
