Though I've never purchased anything from here, I feel compelled to write a favorable review for Lord Nelson's Gallery. Here's why: On a recent Saturday, my family and I were visiting Gettysburg from out of state to tour the battlefield, and we needed to kill some time while waiting for our 6:30 pm dinner reservation at a local pub and restaurant. We stepped into Lord Nelson's at 5:45 pm, not realizing that they normally close at 6:00 pm on weekends. We walked around for the next 45 minutes, admiring the amazing American art on display. The staff did not interrupt us, scowl at us, visibly check their watches, or impatiently clear their throats. We even used their restrooms before leaving. We felt so terrible when, upon strolling out of the gallery at 6:25 pm, we noticed the sign with their hours!

Read moreI was online shopping for a favorite artist, his original sketches are hard to come by, I happened to find Lord Nelson Gallery, they had several sketches pictured in their on line Gallery. I called the gallery and left a message regarding the sketches, Philippe promptly call me back and even took the time to email me some other sketches they had in stock.

Philippe, the owner, recently help me get in touch with John Weiss, an artist that specializes in dogs, to paint a painting of my Newfoundland, Autumn. The painting is wonderful, brought her to life. Then he helped me get it framed by Gettysburg Custom Framing. Awesome job! If it wasn’t for Philippe I wouldn’t have really known where to turn. Many, many thanks Philippe!!! I also love the 18th Century and the selection of art work and handcrafted work is...
