FINE OIL PAINTING By Robert Woodley Brown 19th Century British OLD MASTER PIECE
Located in Ferndown, GB
OLD FINE Original Antique 19th Century British OLD MASTER OIL PAINTING Very Good Condition Canvas , a little crazing due to age . Professional Cleaned & Re-vanished , Re-lined Ready to hang. " Beautiful frame is in Very Good condition , this work alone would cost £700 alone (See Pictures) Fine Original Antique 19th Century British OLD MASTER OIL PAINTING Romantic Scene GOLD GILT FRAME By The Reverend Robert Woodley-Brown 1798 - 1869 Similar $4,000 Premier Collection This Piece is Exceptional good for its age , nice piece of British history Description ( 19th century ) Title: Romantic Scene 1845 Artist: The Reverend Robert Woodley-Brown 1798 - 1869 Signed : maybe under the frame edge Provenance: john Castagno art signature directory Medium : Oil painting on Canvas Condition: Very Good Country: British school Frame size : 23 in x 19 in ( 58 cm x 48 cm) Canvas size : 16" x 12" With an estimate of £3000 - £4000 in a London west End Gallery Description : The Reverend Robert Woodley-Brown was one of those early English landscape painters whose style is so distinct that it is nearly impossible not to be able to instantly recognize his work. This one is no exception.; His paintings remind me of the old movie, “Shangri-La,” where the travelers found a magical place while crossing the Himalayas. The Reverend’s paintings have that kind of magic in them; perhaps it’s his rich color palette or his slightly provincial, yet very Georgian style. It seems there are always pretty skies along with mountains in the background and rivers or lochs somewhere in his compositions. In any case, the result is still pure magic.; This is an accomplished yet charming painting by an artist thought to be actively painting from around 1810 to 1850 and specializing in the stunning scenery of England’s Lake District. Unfortunately, little is known about Reverend Brown’s personal life, and he did not sign most of his works. I have handled several of his paintings in the course of my career and he always has been among my favorite artists.; This gorgeous landscape delivers all of Reverend Woodley-Brown’s quintessential style, color and romantic feel for which his work is admired. His figures, though seemingly entranced themselves by the beauty around them, are there primarily to give scale and a focal point. The trees are in deep, rich greens, while the pink-tinged sky further show off his talent in the realm of color. We are immediately pulled into the artist’s world. The serenity of the scene, as in all of his works, is overwhelming, making the viewer a willing partner in the artist’s interpretation of it. The very Woodley-Brownish romantic folly only adds to the scene’s charm.; In the world of Reverend Brown, his cottages often became follies shrouded in greenery. The background mountains rose...

Harem Girls in the Palace Courtyard 19th Century Antique Oil Painting on Canvas
Located in Jacksonville, FL
Description: Fabio Fabbi: A Master of Orientalist Intrigue The painting is signed on the bottom left side. Fabio Fabbi, an esteemed Italian artist of the late 19th and early 20th centuries, emerged as a prominent figure within the Orientalist art movement. Born in Rome in 1861, Fabbi’s passion for capturing the exotic and mysterious landscapes and cultures of the East would define his artistic career and leave an indelible mark on the art world. Fabbi’s artistic journey began with formal training at the Accademia di Belle Arti in Rome, where he developed a deep appreciation for classical techniques and aesthetics. However, it was his encounters with Orientalist themes and subjects that ignited his imagination and set him on a path to becoming a renowned master of Orientalist art. One of Fabbi’s most captivating works, “Harem Girls in the Palace Courtyard,” stands as a testament to his exceptional talent for depicting scenes of intrigue and sensuality within the luxurious settings of the Ottoman Empire. This mesmerizing painting invites viewers into the opulent world of a harem, where a group of beautiful women gracefully gather in a sunlit courtyard. Fabbi’s brushwork skillfully captures the vibrant colors, exquisite textiles, and intricate architectural details that define the environment. In “Harem Girls in the Palace Courtyard,” Fabbi delves into the alluring realm of the harem, exploring the interplay between power, desire, and secrecy. With meticulous attention to detail, he captures the expressions and body language of the women, evoking a sense of mystery and sensuality. The play of light and shadow adds depth and dimension to the composition, further immersing viewers in the rich atmosphere of the scene. Fabbi’s ability to weave narratives within his artworks sets him apart. “Harem Girls in the Palace Courtyard” not only showcases his technical skill but also tells a story—a glimpse into a hidden world that fascinates and captivates. Through his artistry, Fabbi offers a nuanced portrayal of Eastern culture, emphasizing the beauty and complexity that lie beneath the surface. Throughout his career, Fabio Fabbi gained recognition and admiration for his Orientalist works. His paintings were exhibited in prominent galleries across Europe, where audiences marveled at his ability to transport them to distant lands and evoke a sense of wonder and intrigue. Fabbi’s talent for capturing the essence of Orientalist themes and his exquisite attention to detail earned him a place among the most respected artists of his time. Fabio Fabbi’s legacy lives on through his remarkable artworks. His ability to portray the mysteries and allure of the East continues to inspire and captivate art enthusiasts worldwide. “Harem Girls in the Palace Courtyard” exemplifies Fabbi’s mastery of the Orientalist genre, inviting viewers to step into a world of beauty, enchantment, and hidden desires. His paintings exhibited at prestigious venues in Turin and Milan. Knighted in the Order of the Crown of Italy in 1892. Notable works include the Sacred Heart...

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.

A variety of authentic art is available on 1stDibs. Explore art at auction and the 1stDibs NFT art marketplace, too.
