By far my favorite place in New York City. Its not only a poster gallery, but a full experience. The owners treat every client like a member of their family and spare no time nor effort to give a beautiful history lesson on each one of their original pieces. They also have the most amazing taste and I would trust them with my eyes closed to always design the perfect frame. I never thought Id be able to own a museum worthy/ 120+ years old piece of art. But I guess thats the fun of posters... Thank you for helping me turn my house into a home!

It was a pleasure meeting and working with Elie, Buddy, and Linda. Their passion, thoughtfulness, and friendliness instills a sense of trust and appreciation for their profession. They went above and beyond and even helped me installed the poster in my home. I would highly recommend popping by La Belle Epoque and introducing yourself if you’re in town.

We found this beautiful vintage French Liquor Label at La Belle Epoque that reminded us of home. In fact it was extra special since I have both French and Brazilian origins. It was the perfect addition to our apartment!

My husband and I love coming to La Belle Epoque. Linda & Elie are very enthusiastic, have a lot of expertise in this space and are great fun to talk to each time. We are so pleased with the three pieces weve been bought from them so far. It was well worth the investment as it has given life to our apartment, and makes us incredibly happy each time we look at them. Theres a wonderful range of pieces for all budgets.

What an amazing collection. Linda, Eli, and Mia were all amazingly helpful, passionate, and patient with everyone who walked in. Linda was so nice and knowledgeable! This was our first poster purchase and we learned a TON. Everyone who works here knows EVERYTHING about posters and has a story about each piece. There’s absolutely no pressure to buy but you’ll probably walk out with something you love 🙂

This is my new favorite spot!! I recently purchased this Ed Sagot poster from La Belle Époque and had the best experience. They have a huge selection of amazing vintage posters. The best part, though, is that the owners are extremely knowledgeable about the history and background of every single poster in their shop. They truly bring the posters to life!! I would recommend this special spot to everyone. Even if you dont intend on buying, You should still stop by for the experience. Hopefully I can make another purchase again soon!

La Belle Epoque is hands down one of the best shops I have been in before. My mother and I came in to find a vintage poster she has been wanting for our house. Not only did they have it but they had so many other amazing posters we got to see! It truly was like visiting a museum. In addition, Elie and Linda are two of the most knowledge people about this artwork. Not to mention also extremely kind. My mom got the beautiful poster she wanted here! It was so amazing to see how excited my mom was here, all thanks to Linda and Elie. Could not say one single bad thing about La Belle Epoque. Truly such an amazing store with amazing people! We are already looking forward to coming back again!

La Belle Epoque is one of the most unique vintage art stores in Manhattan. I normally dont write reviews but my multiple experiences purchasing and visiting this location have been unmatched. The art itself is diverse, special and one-of-a-kind. The customer service is outstanding as the owners are with you every step of the process and have impeccable guidance when it comes to selecting the piece that would work well with your space. My most recent purchase has been a wonderful addition to my home and has caught the eye of everyone who has visited. I cannot recommend La Belle Epoque enough, and I am excited to purchase my next piece!

We recently purchased three beautiful vintage posters from La Belle Époque and are very happy to say how delighted we are with the quality of the original posters and the purchase experience. Elie and Linda kindly provided us with in-depth understanding of Belle Époque or Art Nouveau and especially the life and work of Jules Chéret. They are very personable, generous in their suggestions as to the artwork selection and framing, and of course have a deep knowledge of all types art presentation of the period. These 120-plus year-old works of art are affordable and are a daily source of artistic appreciation for us. Without hesitation we recommend La Belle Époque for the vast original poster collection, Elie & Linda’s generosity of spirit and their outstanding client service.

I normally dont write reviews, but this experience definitely warrants one. Its very refreshing to go to a store that not only specializes in something, but also treats its customers with respect. If you are interested in purchasing art within this vein, do not hesitate to come here. The staff is very knowledgable and friendly and the selection is both unique and diverse. Its good to know that my money is going toward a beautiful piece of art and a business run by even better people.

Linda and Elie are great. I live in the area and stop by and recently bought 2 beautiful historical posters and beautiful framing. Both Linda and Elie have a true passion for their work and it shows in their approach with customers. Integrity and reliability come through dealing with them both. I would not hesitate one second sending my family and friends to La Belle Epoque for a wonderful inventory.

Recently I bought a fantastic poster from Belle Epoque. It was a terrific experience. Eli and Linda were so helpful, gracious and patient in showing me a huge variety of wonderful art work to choose from and sharing their enthusiasm and vast knowledge. Very educational! This was my second visit to and purchase from Belle Epoque and I fully intend to do so again when next in Manhattan. I highly recommend everything about this Gallery and its fine owners.

Our first visit to this store was in 2004. The variety and quality of the merchandise is exceptional. The framing is the best I have ever seen. It’s a work of art in itself but always compliments the art. Enjoyed chatting with the owners. They are very knowledgeable and passionate about the art posters. Can’t wait to get my new piece of Mucha.

I spent an hour talk to Elie today. He is super knowledgeable and patient. I ended buying a beautiful turn of the century poster, and Im over the moon! I had already compared prices online, so I knew that I was getting a solid deal (and obviously, its always better if you can see what youre buying in person and purchase from a reputable dealer).Definitely recommend!

A long time fan of La Belle Epoque, I just recently purchased my first original poster. Elie and Linda took the time to show me a number of their French pieces, and were knowledgeable enough to tell me the history behind each one. The selection is incredible, a meticulously built collection spanning a range of origins and topics that allowed me to find both a look and a story that resonates with me.

Review №25

The Belle Epoque poster gallery is a must-visit in Manhattan. The owners are fair, honest, knowledgeable and dependable. Because they’re collecting for so many years, their reputation for honesty has made them the number one reliable source for unquestionably original vintage posters. Their collection is indisputably the most varied in the world, ranging from rare turn-of-the-century to campy classics of Marilyn Monroe!If like me, you are interested in beauty, design, history, you too will love these lovely people and their wonderful gallery. Merci beaucoup!

What an amazing place. We stopped in during a recent shopping trip to NYC and fell in love with this shop and the owners. They were just coming back from a show, and were moving hundreds of the most beautiful rare posters I have ever seen back into the shop. They were so kind, they asked what we liked and were interested in seeing, and then proceeded to unroll poster after poster in front of us. Each was gorgeous, authentic, and in excellent shape. The owners knowledge of each poster, the style, rarity, and artist was astounding, often taking a moment to share a story about it or the genre. She helped us narrow our search to a selection of vintage travel posters that were within our price range, and helped us decide exactly the theme and style that would work for us. We wont buy a vintage poster anywhere else, ever.

I loved my experience here. Elie, Linda and Sam are truly special. If you have not come in for framing or vintage posters/printed items Do Not Wait any longer! I learned more about my purchase & framed item and look forward to retuning to buy more. Such a good experience. I had to leave a review given my stellar customer service experience. Too much bad in todays world- felt so good to meet them.

Last Xmas Ellie designed a custom frame for a group of photos I wanted to give to family members, and it turned out beautifully. Today I needed a picture framed in time for a dear friends 75th birthday this Saturday. Ellie and Linda used all their resources and skill to make this special gift ready in time for the celebration. Great dedication, above and beyond what I could reasonably have expected. Highly recommend them to all!

La Belle Epoque is a MUST visit, regardless of your interest in art/vintage advertising. Linda and Elie are so informative and very interesting people -- I could have spent hours just talking to them. The posters are incredibly beautiful and the history behind them make them even more interesting.

Wow, what a great experience. Linda and Elie have a fantastic inventory of posters that they keep well organized in this charming, homey shop. You can tell how much they love the artwork and how much they know about it each piece. They were warm and friendly—professional and not at all pushy. Lovely people with some historical gems.

Best shop in town! Unlike other galleries, I actually feel welcome in this gallery. Other galleries feel too ritzy to browse freely, or as if I’m always being watched. Thanks to Elie & Linda for the great experience. Amazing original posters

I spent the afternoon with Elie and he could not have been more friendly or helpful. As a beginner to the world of collecting posters, his patience and willingness to help me learn about some of the history couldnt have been more appreciated. Looking forward to many more trips into the store,

What a little treasure... i stumbled on it during a walk around the village. I was looking for something to remember my time in New York, and to take a piece of it home to London with me... I found just the thing. A poster of 1920s scene of Broadway... given Broadway shows have been my companion in the US, this is very poignant for me and struck a chord! the staff were just awesome... i could have sat there and chatted for longer! thank you for my lovely Nepresso coffee...

Best place in New York for vintage posters and original vintage designs. I walked in knowing nothing about the world of vintage posters and how unique they are and left with a warm espresso and new friends. Fantastic experience all around and in one of the best locations downtown.

Over the years I have put together a fine collection of posters for my homes and those of my children. I could not have done this without the knowledge and advice of Linda and Elie, the owners of La Belle Epoque. Their knowledge of the history of each posters subject and its artist gave life to these posters. As I write this I am surrounded by posters by Cappiello and Toulouse Lautrec which continue to bring a smile to my face.

OMG I LOVED working with Elie, owner of this wonderful poster store! I just bought the most amazing poster for my family room area. The selection on this website is unbelievably vast and its all the real deal. Whats fun is knowing how passionate these folks are about vintage posters and the quality of their selection and their service reflects that. That service extends to the extra extra care given to making sure my address was correct for delievery of poster. If you like vingage posters -La Belle Epoque is Nirvana! Thank you Elie, and I cant wait to frame and enjoy my newest treasure!
