Darvill's has one of the largest
collections of limited edition
serigraphs & prints by Alaska's
most popular artist ~ Rie Muñoz!
A little about our history...although
Darvill's dates to 1942 on Orcas Island,
the
roots go much deeper than
that.
Fred T. Darvill established the
business in 1918
and was located in Salt Lake City and San Francisco
before moving to Orcas Island in 1942.
In 1971, at the age of 90, Fred T. Darvill sold
the business to Dale & Catherine Pederson. The
Pedersons operated the business until 2004 when
Wade Campbell & Chris Brussat took over as just
the 3rd owners in the 90 years of Darvill's
history!
In 2007 we made the difficult decision to close
the shop on Main Street in Eastsound, where
the business had resided for 65 years.
We now are offering our amazing collection
of rare prints and maps exclusively online.
Please check in often, as we are continously
adding prints and maps to the site.
Thanks for visiting!
Darvill's Rare Prints has one of the most extensive collections of engravings, prints and lithographs anywhere. Gleaned from dozens of European sources over the past 90 years, these prints cover a wide range of subject matter. They are often beautifully framed and yet moderately priced.
Perusing through bins of carefully wrapped prints, one finds Hogarths, Curtis botanicals and more. There are eighteenth and nineteenth century road maps, architectural engravings and legal documents, as well as early twentieth century magazine illustrations and calendar art. Finds like an original plate from the first edition of Captain Cook's Voyages, or an early color lithograph from the United States Railroad Survey abound.
In addition to the multitude of art
covering the past 300 years, Darvill's is pleased to offer the whimsical limited edition prints by Rie Muñoz. Rie has a cabin here on Orcas Island and has featured several local scenes in her wildly popular limited edition prints.
Wade and Chris will continue to add
to Darvill's collection of both rare antique prints and rare maps. We sincerely hope you enjoy
browsing our site. We also welcome any comments or questions you might have!
The home of Darvill's Rare Prints from 1942 through early 2007. After 65 years in the same Main St. location in Eastsound on Orcas Island, we decided to close the "brick and mortar business" to concentrate on serving our global audience exclusively through our Web site. Thanks to all who visited the shop over the years.
