The Drawing Room also represents the estate of Sardinian born sculptor and longtime East Hampton resident Costantino Nivola (1911-1988), and presents work from the estates of Stephen Antonakos (1923-2013), Antonio Asis (1932-2019), Jane Freilicher (1924-2014), Vincent Longo (1923-2017), Sheridan Lord (1926-1994), Dorothy Ruddick (1925-2010), Saul Steinberg (1914-1999), Jane Wilson (1924-2015), and Jack Youngerman (1926-2020).

The gallery's co-founders each bring extensive experience to their collaboration. Emily began her gallery career in New York after receiving a BA in art history from Vassar College. Before launching the The Drawing Room with Victoria, she worked as a gallery director and private art advisor. Victoria is a graduate of Radcliffe, where she majored in old master drawings and worked in the Drawings Department of The Fogg Art Museum. From 1982 to 2013 she directed her own galleries in New York City and Boston.
