Located in Bruges, BE
Frans Van Holder Ixelles 1881 – 1919 Geneva Belgian Painter 'Portrait of a Young Woman in White – The Artist’s Wife' Signature: Signed top left and dated 1906 Medium: Oil on canvas Dimensions: diameter: image size 96 cm, frame size 120,50 cm Biography: Van Holder Frans, born in Brussels in 1881, emerged as a prominent post-Impressionist painter during the Belle Epoque and Art Nouveau era. Initially a painter-decorator in his father’s workshop, he contributed to the adornment of Brussels’ bourgeoisie interiors, setting the stage for his alignment with the Art Nouveau movement. Van Holder studied under Alfred Cluysenaar at the Saint-Gilles Academy. His artistic evolution embraced Impressionist principles, influenced by luminosity proponents like Manet and Pissarro. After formal training at the Sint-Gillis Academy and travels through Spain, Italy, and Switzerland, Van Holder returned to Brussels in 1905, joining the esteemed ‘Pour l’Art’ association. Rejecting theoretical constraints, he prioritized harmony in his art, viewing color as a musical composition requiring rhythm and balance. Van Holder’s mastery extended to intimate post-impressionist portraits, notably capturing the Brussels aristocracy like the Wolfers family...

In 1864, he won the Prix de Rome, on the theme of "The Foundation of Marseille", and was engaged on the site of the Paris Opera house. He later produced many sculpted works, most of them in marble. In 1881, Louis-Ernest Barrias was awarded a medal of honor of the fine arts and named knight of the Legion of Honor in 1878, then promoted officer in 1881 and commander in 1900. The artist replaced Auguste Dumont at the Institute in 1884, then succeeded Jules Cavelier as a professor at the School of Fine Arts, where, among his most notable students, there were Victor Ségoffin, Charles Despiau and Paul Landowski.

Louise Abbéma, 1853 – 1927, French Painter, 'Lady in Paris on a Winter Day'
Located in Bruges, BE
Abbéma Louise Étampes 1853 – 1927 Paris French Painter 'Lady in Paris on a Winter Day' Signature: Signed lower middle right Medium: Oil on canvas Dimensions: Image size 100 x 120 cm, frame size 112 x 132 cm Biography: Louise Abbéma, a prominent French artist of the Belle Époque, was born on October 30, 1853, in Étampes, Essonne, France. She hailed from a wealthy Parisian family with strong connections to the local artistic community. Her family’s artistic ties ran deep, as her great-grandmother was the renowned actress Louise Contat. From a young age, Abbéma exhibited a talent for painting and began her artistic journey in her early teens. She received formal training under the guidance of notable artists of her time, such as Charles Joshua Chaplin, Jean-Jacques Henner, and Carolus-Duran. Her talent and dedication bore fruit when, at the age of 23, she painted a portrait of the legendary actress Sarah Bernhardt, who became both a lifelong friend and, speculatively, a romantic partner. Abbéma’s artistic endeavors extended far beyond portraiture. She lent her creative touch to the embellishment of various iconic Parisian landmarks. Her panels and murals graced the Paris Town Hall, the Paris Opera House, numerous theaters (including the aptly named “Théâtre Sarah Bernhardt”), and even the “Palace of the Colonial Governor” in Dakar, Senegal. Her unique style combined academic and impressionistic elements, characterized by the use of light and rapid brushstrokes. Recognition continued to find Abbéma, and she became a regular exhibitor at the prestigious Paris Salon, earning an honorable mention for her work in 1881. She also had the distinction of having her art displayed at the Women’s Building during the 1893 World Columbian Exposition in Chicago. Moreover, a bust of Abbéma sculpted by Sarah Bernhardt was showcased at the exposition. Abbéma’s artistic repertoire was diverse, encompassing oil portraits and watercolors. Her work often bore the influence of Chinese and Japanese painters, as well as contemporary masters like Édouard Manet. Flowers were a recurring motif in her creations. Some of her most celebrated works include “The Seasons,” “April Morning,” “Place de la Concorde,” “Among the Flowers,” “Winter,” and portraits of prominent individuals such as actress Jeanne Samary, Emperor Dom Pedro II...

SIGNUM TEMPORIS by Vasili Zianko, author's volume-contour technique
Located in Sempach, LU
SIGN OF THE TIMES The paint is made in the author's technique of painting by Vasili Zianko based acrylic painting on canvas using a variety of textures, washes, the finest glazing, volumetric contours. The art-work is readable for blind and visually impaired people by touch. The painting metaphorically depicts Ouroboros wheel - a curled snake biting its tail. Ouroboros is a symbol of eternity and infinity, especially of cyclic nature life, alternation of creation and destruction, life and death, constant rebirth and death, the movement of space. My end is my beginning. In many myths, Ouroboros embraces the whole world and identified with the circular flow of waters surrounding the earth. It maintains the world and its existence, and at the same time, it brings death into life, and life into death. Unmoving in appearance, Ouroboros personifies perpetual motion, always returning to oneself. In Orphic cosmology, Ouroboros embraces the Cosmic Egg...

Photography, Drawings, Prints, Sculptures and Paintings for Sale

Whether growing your current fine art collection or taking the first steps on that journey, you will find an extensive range of original photography, drawings, prints, sculptures, paintings and more on 1stDibs.

Visual art is among the oldest forms of expression, and it has been evolving for centuries. Beautiful objects can provide a window to the past or insight into our current time. Art collecting enhances daily life through the presence of meaningful work. It displays an appreciation for culture, whether a print by Elizabeth Catlett channeling social change or a narrative quilt by Faith Ringgold.

Contemporary art has lured more initiates to collecting than almost any other category, with notable artists including Yayoi Kusama, Marc Chagall, Kehinde Wiley and Jean-Michel Basquiat. Navigating the waiting lists for the next Marlene Dumas, Jeff Koons or Jasper Johns has become competitive.

When you’re living with art, particularly as people more often work from home and enjoy their spaces, it’s important to choose art that resonates with you. While the richness of art with its many movements, styles and histories can be overwhelming, the key is to identify what is appealing and inspiring. Artwork can play with the surrounding color of a room, creating a layered approach. The dynamic shapes and sizes of sculptures can set different moods, such as a bronze by Miguel Guía on a mantel or an Alexander Calder mobile suspended over a table. A wall of art can evoke emotions in an interior while showing off your tastes and interests. A salon-style wall mixing eclectic pieces like landscape paintings with charcoal drawings is a unique way to transform a space and show off a collection.

For art meditating on the subconscious, investigate Surrealists like Joan Miró and Salvador Dalí. Explore Pop art and its leading artists such as Andy Warhol, Rosalyn Drexler and Keith Haring for bright and bold colors. Not only did these artists question art itself, but also how we perceive society. Similarly, 20th-century photography and abstract painting reconsidered the intent of art.

Abstract Expressionists like Helen Frankenthaler and Lee Krasner and Color Field artists including Sam Gilliam broke from conventional ideas of painting, while Op artists such as Yaacov Agam embraced visual trickery and kinetic movement. Novel visuals are also integral to contemporary work influenced by street art, such as sculptures and prints by KAWS.

Realist portraiture is a global tradition reflecting on what makes us human. This is reflected in the work of Slim Aarons, an American photographer whose images are at once candid and polished and appeared in Holiday magazine and elsewhere. Innovative artists Mickalene Thomas and Kerry James Marshall are now offering new perspectives on the form.

Collecting art is a rewarding, lifelong pursuit that can help connect you with the creative ways historic, modern and contemporary artists have engaged with the world. For more tips on piecing together an art collection, see our guide to buying and displaying art.
