Thackeray Gallery

This central London gallery opened for business in 1968 to exhibit living British artists, a tradition that continues more than forty years later. In the gallery's formative years, artists such as Kyffin Williams, Alberto Morrocco and Joanna Carrington exhibited at the Thackeray, and although now deceased, their works are still shown. Other artists who have exhibited there include Peter Coker, Fred Cuming and Donald McIntyre.

The relationship between the Thackeray and the Sue Rankin Gallery is one of succession and merger. In 1993, following the retirement of Priscilla Thompson, who had founded and run the Thackeray Gallery for 25 years, the gallery was passed to Anne Thomson. Thomson was the owner of her own establishment, namely the Sue Rankin Gallery in London. Anne Thomson decided to merge the best aspects of both galleries into one operation. She chose to retain the well-established Thackeray Gallery name and its location, effectively absorbing her original gallery's operations into the Thackeray brand. For a time, the gallery was sometimes referred to as the "Thackeray Rankin Gallery". In 2001, the merged gallery was taken over by Sarah Macdonald-Brown, building on the history and philosophy established by the previous owners.
