    No one knows for certain who invented watercolor, as the earliest examples of the material date back to Paleolithic times. However, many historians consider the German Northern Renaissance artist Albrecht Dürer to be the father of European watercolor painting. His work inspired many painters, such as Anthony van Dyck and Claude Lorrain, to work in the medium. Find a collection of watercolor paintings on 1stDibs.

    Yes, watercolor can fade over time. The paints are delicate and can lose their color quickly, especially when exposed to direct sunlight. However, artwork produced with watercolors can be protected from fading with a layer of varnish. Using acid-free paper can also reduce the risk of discoloration. Find a collection of fine art from some of the world's top sellers on 1stDibs.
