Finding the Right Paintings for You

Painting is an art form that has spanned innumerable cultures, with artists using the medium to tell stories, explore and communicate ideas and express themselves. To bring abstract paintings, landscape paintings, still-life paintings and other original paintings into your home is to celebrate and share in the long tradition of this discipline.

When we look at paintings, particularly those that originated in the past, we learn about history, other cultures and countries of the world. Like every other work of art, paintings — whether they are contemporary creations or works that were made during the 19th century — can often help us clearly see and understand the world around us in a meaningful and interesting way.

Cave walls were the canvases for what were arguably the world’s first landscape paintings, which depict natural scenery through art. Portrait paintings and drawings, which, along with sculpture, were how someone’s appearance was recorded prior to the advent of photography, are at least as old as Ancient Egypt. In the Netherlands, landscapes were a major theme for painters as early as the 1500s. Later, artists in Greece, Rome and elsewhere created vast wall paintings to decorate stately homes, churches and tombs.

Today, creating a wall of art is a wonderful way to enhance your space, showcase beautiful pieces and tie an interior design together.

No matter your preference, whether you favor Post-Impressionist paintings, animal paintings, Surrealism, Pop art or another movement or specific period, arranging art on a blank wall allows you to evoke emotions in a room while also showing off your tastes and interests. A symmetrical wall arrangement may comprise a grid of four to six pieces or, for an odd number of works, a horizontal row. Asymmetrical arrangements, which may be small clusters of art or large, salon-style gallery walls, have a more collected and eclectic feel.

Download the 1stDibs app, which includes a handy “View on Wall” feature that allows you to see how a particular artwork will look on a particular wall, and read about how to arrange wall art. And if you’re searching for the perfect palette for your interior design project, what better place to turn than to the art world’s masters of color

On 1stDibs, you’ll find an expansive collection of paintings and other fine art for your home or office. Browse abstract paintings, portrait paintings, paintings by emerging artists and more today.

    Famed painter Edward Hopper passed away in 1967, his wife, heir to his works, bequeathed their joint collections to the Whitney Museum of American Art. While the Whitney has most of his work, you can still see important paintings by Hopper at the Museum of Modern Art in New York, the Des Moines Art Center and the Art Institute of Chicago. On 1stDibs, find a variety of original artwork from top artists.
  • 1stDibs ExpertOctober 24, 2024
    What an Edward Hopper painting is worth depends on its size, condition, historical significance and other factors. In 2018, his painting Chop Suey fetched more than $91.8 million at a New York auction. Depicting two women chatting face-to-face in a restaurant, the oil painting is an excellent example of Hopper's interest in capturing the everyday lives of people living in New York City during the first half of the 20th century. In Hopper’s vision, the people inhabiting his city and suburban scenes are often lonely, anonymous, temporary inhabitants of sometimes inhospitable environments. When there is no human element, he transfers these qualities to the architecture or even to the landscape itself, using intense light to infuse emotion. If you own a Hopper painting, a certified appraiser or knowledgeable art dealer can assist you with the valuation process. Shop an assortment of Edward Hopper art on 1stDibs.
  • 1stDibs ExpertApril 16, 2024
