history The gallery of the art dealers Gustav Cramer (1881-1961) and his son Hans Max Cramer (1920-2012) was known for dealing in old master paintings during the 20th century in Europe. The gallery first opened in Berlin in 1933.

In order to escape the Nazi regime the family moved to the Netherlands and opened the G. Cramer Oude Kunst gallery on Javastraat 38 in The Hague in 1938. Hans Max Cramer ran the business after the death of his father in 1961.

The gallery represented important private collections in the Netherlands, Germany and Switzerland. Their clientele included, among others, Norton Simon (1907-1993), Edward W. Carter (1911-1996), Baron Thyssen-Bornemisza (1921-2002), The Metropolitan Museum of Art, the J. Paul Getty Museum, the National Gallery, London, the Los Angeles County Museum of Art, the National Gallery of Art, Washington, the Minneapolis Institute of Arts, and the Toledo Art Museum.
