Williams & Everett (est.1855) in Boston, Massachusetts, was an art dealership run by Henry Dudley Williams and William Everett. The firm sold original artworks by American and European artists, as well as "photographs and carbon-pictures of eminent persons, noted places, and famous paintings." It also continued the mirror and picture frame business that had been established earlier by the Doggett brothers. History Gallery founder Dudley Williams had worked for John Doggett & Co., 1816-1855. "John Doggett retired from the firm in 1845, and his brother Samuel in 1854, and the business was reorganized, the manufacture of mirror and picture frames being continued under the name of Williams & Everett, who added the branch of paintings, etc.." Williams and his new business partner, William Everett, were related by marriage; Williams had married Everett's sister Isabel in 1832. Before creating a formal partnership, Williams and Everett each sold mirrors, picture frames and carpets from the same address on Washington Street. The gallery was located at the corner of Bedford and Washington Street until 1885. The gallery moved in 1885 from downtown to Back Bay, where it remained until the business closed around 1907. "Williams & Everett's Galleries, at No. 79 Boylston Street, were ... designed and built expressly as a repository of the Fine Arts. ... The architectural adornment of the interior is of the English Renaissance, with carved wood and heavy beams in sight. On one side is a carved chimney piece, extending to the ceiling, and near this is a grand staircase leading to a series of galleries, extending from the carved wood coigne which looks down into the store, to the balcony overlooking Park Square. The wainscoting of dark wood is surmounted with pomegranate hangings, and the ceiling is effectively decorated in plain and harmonious tints. Incandescent lights placed in the ceiling in a novel and original manner, are used throughout the store and galleries." European artists exhibited included Rosa Bonheur and Jean-Baptiste-Camille Corot. Williams & Everett also exhibited and sold works by American artists such as: Henry Bacon Albert Bierstadt Bricher George L.
