TEFAF Maastricht is widely regarded as the leading fair for old masters, antiquities and fine art across periods, from antiquity to contemporary design.
The fair is known for its vetting, in which specialist committees examine works before the fair opens.
Coats, umbrellas, large bags and suitcases are not allowed inside the fair and must be left at the cloakroom or lockers. [2]
