Ukiyo-E Japonisme Geisha Paper Cubist Collage, Kimono, Mid-Century Mixed Media
Located in Brooklyn, NY
Stunning midcentury collage, framed, geishas in the middle of a seemingly innocuous stroll / conversation on what seems like a very sunny day. Unsure of whether or not to indulge in the sunlight, the leader of the pack looks back to see what her colleagues have decided to do... Maybe she will enjoy some sunshine as well? Maybe her friends are planning to share a parasol and therefore she should keep hers up? A wonderful commentary on the powerful ease of the ukiyo-e scene which came to popularity in the Edo era (1700s Japan) and found world-wise fame in the second half of the 19th century in the West. The unabashed flatness and strong planes of color that make up the ukiyo-e composition served, according to many an artist and historian, as an important foundation for "Modernism" in a post-Industrial revolution, "modern" world. A lineage that might or might not find its beginnings in the early 19th century. splashes of color in the work of Delacroix, reborn x 10 with the artists that lived and worked with and after Manet and were deemed to be "Impressionists" (perhaps most importantly Mary Cassatt in this instance) and even more so, the troubled and generation of artists that would follow them, which included Gauguin and Van Gogh, among many others. So in the case this collaged image, a post-Cubist collage...

Tilgmans Swedish Modern Green Woman Wall Plate, Centerpiece, 1950s
Located in Copenhagen, DK
Extraordinary modernist item by Swedish Tilgmans Keramik. Fully glazed centerpiece or wall decoration depicting a green faced woman with long stemmed yellow and blue flowers on a striped dark blue background created with the sgraffito technique. Manufactured in 1957 by German/Swedish Paul Harald Tilgman in his workshop in a small town close to Gothenburg in Sweden. Blue patterned glaze on the sides and muted blue leaves on the milky white glazed base. Signed and dated on base. A rare and unique piece in beautiful condition! Sweden, 1957. About Tilgmans Keramik: Paul Harald “Harry” Tilgmann was born in Dresden, Germany in 1904 and emigrated to Sweden during WWII where he started Tilgmans Keramik (= Ceramics) in 1948 in the small town of Utbynäs close to Gothenburg. Tilgman had 16 employees working for him and when he hired the Polish refugee Marian Zawadzki (1912-1978) as artistic director in 1953, Tilgman Keramik started experimenting with the distinct sgraffito technique. The sgraffito technique consists of carving fine lines into the background of a design through a light coloured glaze down to a dark grey clay slip. This created a unique textured ground which has become a style associated with Tilgmans Keramik in particular. The decorative elements also appear to be outlined with a carved line and then hand painted with overglazes where birds, fish, flowers, butterflies and other animals were a common theme. This type of work was the most popular in Mid Century Sweden alongside Tilgmans small animal figurines...

Antique, New and Vintage Decorative Art

Antique, new and vintage decorative art is crucial to personalizing your interior.

Bringing art into your home will help you create a warm and welcoming atmosphere, whether you are expecting to regularly host guests for cocktails in your living room or you are inclined to soak up some “me time” on weekends by curling up with a book in your library. After all, a room isn’t quite complete until you hang some art on the walls.

Choosing a piece of art for your interior is a matter of finding something that resonates with you. You should also consider what will work with your current decor. Keep in mind that a wide range of objects counts as decorative art — antique and vintage prints, paintings, wall-mounted sculptures and more. There is so much to choose from! And art can feel as deeply personal with the vintage posters that promoted your favorite classic films as it can with framed photographs of your loved ones.

Decorative art can set the mood for a room and will typically make for great conversation. When you find wall decor and decorations that speak to you, why not introduce them into your space? It will give you and your guests the opportunity to meaningfully engage with the art every time you see it. You can play with different styles, eras and colors. Mix and match pieces to integrate a refreshing pop of color or create a theme by dedicating a room to a color palette or certain time period. A great way to tie your layout together is to choose wall art that complements your decor and color scheme.

Folk art is an interesting category for its wide range of works across various media and the array of textures it can offer. Paper art is another versatile option because it will be easy to find a home for portraits, collages, drawings and other works in your space. With decorative paper art, you can also get creative with how you arrange your wall art. There are plenty of options that include hanging the works salon-style.

On 1stDibs, find a constantly growing collection of antique and vintage decorative art today.
