Peter Colasante became an art dealer by accident. This story is as dramatic as they come. His arrival in DC from NYC, his brief career on the stage and meeting with Fred Maloof, the a wealthy Lebanese art collector Lower East Side roommate of Kahlil Gibran, led to a burglary, an accusation of attempted-assasination and a Washington Post reported interrogation of Peter by the FBI.

L’Enfant Gallery has always provided real escapism, a physical world of touched objects far away from the screen. Any sense of time or place vanishes as you climb the stairs to yet another floor

Peter continues to run a brick and mortar three story old curiosity shop come gallery, But he now also invites all to experience L’Enfant Gallery’s three floors of art and antiques, our exhibitions, lectures, dinners, dance performances, and cocktail parties.
