Antonio Guansé, a Spanish painter, was born on January 1, 1926, in Tortosa. When he won the prize for criticism in 1962, the newspaper Le Monde presented his work, “From nature, he paints with a range of ochres sensitive and warm and deaf tones, Guansé only keeps Rhythmic lines of force, the combination of the masses, it does so with a figurative coherence which gives to its representation an objective quality without perceptible relation with the reality which is the subject of it." Ten years later, in the same journal, the evolution of Guansé's painting is underlined, “His palette, violently contrasted, has been simplified and brightened, with more brilliant reds, oranges and blacks than the burnt hues of a long time ago. This conquest of color seems to open up new spatial concerns." Guansé died on November 22, 2008, in Paris.
When paired with the perfect frame, the right antique and vintage paintings and other wall decorations can either subtly showcase your personality or steal the show altogether.
The earliest paintings were created on the walls of caves, proving even our ancient ancestors knew that striking artwork is meant to be on display. Cave paintings on an Indonesian island are reportedly older than the earliest cave art in Spain and France, and the figurative paintings back then were produced with inorganic pigments like iron oxide.
Later, the people of Ancient Greece — who learned about art from the Egyptians before them — conceived panel paintings of wax and tempera that were collected and publicly displayed. In the centuries that followed, artists would be commissioned to create large-scale wall murals and frescoed ceilings in sprawling European palaces and in the homes of the aristocracy.
Today, 1stDibs makes it easy for you to celebrate this rich history in your own home. Our collection of paintings includes Art Deco paintings, baroque art and a broad range of other categories. Search by material, period or other attributes to find the right fit — browse an array of 19th century landscape paintings in giltwood frames or abstract oil paintings and portraits made during the 1950s and ‘60s.
An understated contemporary work can complement your space’s color palette without drawing the focus away from the other pivotal design choices you’ve made over the years. Roy Lichtenstein’s Pop art, on the other hand, demands attention with its array of vibrant hues and subjects inspired by popular culture.
Whether you aim to create a gallery in your home or build a single, stunning focal point, you can find what you’re looking for in an extensive inventory of paintings on 1stDibs.
