Kunsthandel A.H. Bies was founded in Eindhoven in 1953 by A.H. Bies, and in 1974 his son Mari Bies entered the business. The firm specialises in 19th-century paintings, with an emphasis on Dutch painting.

An in-house exhibition has become an annual tradition and is held each autumn. Through this exhibition and participation in the Tefaf Maastricht and the PAN Amsterdam, Kunsthandel Bies has developed an international clientele including various museums throughout Europe.
