What makes it a Rhody Gem?
Inside an unassuming plaza is a treasure trove for appreciators of fine art and collectors of ephemera. Since taking ownership in 2016, Ashley Berry has continued the mission and legacy of her uncle Craig Berry, who co-founded Picture This with David O’Brian in 1997, to provide customers with excellent service, expert advice, and preservation. The knowledgeable staff is dedicated to helping with everything from framing artwork to housing keepsakes in custom shadowboxes. The onsite gallery maintains a large collection of rare antique maps from the Rhode Island atlas, plus giclée reproductions from their own past collections and artwork from local and New England artists ready to hang. When it comes to conservation, frames are built by hand by certified framers following the guidelines prescribed by the Library of Congress. There’s also made-in-the-USA giftware, greeting cards, and other merchandise, many manufactured and provided by local artists and printmakers throughout Rhode Island and New England.
