We are pleased to announce that we have just signed a new digital marketing contract with L’Enfant Gallery of Georgetown, Washington DC. We will be working on the branding, web design and digital marketing for this prestigious institution, projecting their works to the world.
A Georgetown Institution
The gallery has stood for 50 years in Washington DC, occupying its current location in historic Georgetown for the last 20. The district is today a bustling and cosmopolitan area of the American capital, famous in its own right for its culture and attractions. Their 19th century building at 1442 Wisconsin Avenue is a landmark of the area and hosts a truly eclectic mix of historic pieces.
A Transatlantic Relationship
The geographic gap between L’Enfant Gallery and MUV was overcome by coincidence, as David Hamer explains –
“The owner and director of L’Enfant Gallery has family in the UK, and happened to see our work on the Discover Brampton brand during a visit. This led to an opening conversation, and a tendering process. We are delighted to be working with them.”
Local & Intercontinental
The transatlantic commission will run on into 2025 and looks to present their huge array of original art works to an online audience. Their pieces include unique works dating back to the 17th century and beyond, with an emphasis on European masters, ancient sculpture and American 19th-20th Century works. MUV has vast experience with all kinds of industries, but is excited to be working with such an interesting client, whose stunning collection lends itself well to capturing online attention.
Peter Colasante of L’Enfant Gallery suggests the reasons for focusing on their web presence –
“After 50 years in business, handling physical tangible objects, I am finally ready to accept the technological age. I hope a website and a social media presence will allow my collection to reach a wider group of people and help a younger generation access, appreciate and own authentic art works and pieces of history. Our collection ranges from small affordable original prints to rare historic masterpieces, so after half a century limited to the brick and mortar in Washington DC, we are ready to go global. My children were born in Cumbria and I hope to retire there, so as we plan our family’s future, supporting a talented Cumbrian business seems perfect and I am happy MUV will take us into this brave new digital world.”
Getting started on the campaign will be a challenge that we’re delighted to meet. Working with such a fascinating project in North America will be great for both parties, with our digital experience and creativity meeting the gallery’s aesthetics and heritage. We’re delighted to welcome them.
