*Aaron Vecht (1886-1965) was the owner of Art Gallery A. Vecht in Amsterdam. The gradson Constant Vecht is the Aaron Vecht's grandson, and he is the actual director of Kunstzalen A. Vecht. Kunstzalen A. Vecht was founded by Aäron Vecht around 1910. The gallery consisted of more rooms, the ‘zalen', where Mr. Vecht housed a broad range of art; Delftware, old glass, but also Asian art and modern paintings. Now the third generation is in charge and sticks to the original concept of the gallery: buying and selling important or rare or just beautiful works of art from all periods and all continents.
