Frequently made by artists working in oil paint, paint and board, all of these available pieces are unique and have attracted attention over the years.

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.
Questions About Old Lyme Paintings
- What are old paintings called?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertApril 12, 2024Old paintings are sometimes called historical paintings. Those produced after 1860 or ’70 are generally referred to as modern paintings, so anything produced before that may be thought of as historical. The term contemporary usually describes paintings that are no more than 20 years old. Find a wide variety of fine art from some of the world's top galleries and dealers on 1stDibs.
- Are old paintings worth money?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertSeptember 16, 2024Yes, some old paintings are worth money. The artist, size, historical significance and condition of a piece, as well as other factors, contribute to its value. A certified appraiser or knowledgeable art dealer can evaluate your painting and give you an idea of how much it may be worth. Explore a diverse assortment of paintings on 1stDibs.
- 1stDibs ExpertAugust 29, 2024To tell if an old painting is a print, use a magnifying glass to look at its surface up close. A real painting will have visible brushstrokes left behind by the artist. A print will usually have a smooth surface and may look like it's made up of tiny dots, depending on the printing process used to produce it. If you're still unsure about your piece, a certified appraiser or knowledgeable art dealer can assist you. Explore a collection of paintings on 1stDibs.
- 1stDibs ExpertAugust 15, 2024To tell how old an oil painting is, research the artist who produced it. You can use the mobile app Smartify to snap a photo of the signature on your painting and identify the artist. Read biographical information about the artist online and look at images of their work to estimate the age of your piece. Alternatively, you can get the opinion of a knowledgeable art dealer or certified appraiser. Explore a wide variety of oil paintings on 1stDibs.
- 1stDibs ExpertJune 15, 2023A painting produced by a skilled, noteworthy European artist that was produced before the 19th century may be considered an Old Master painting. The informal term was derived from the title of an artist who trained in a guild long enough to become a master, such as Leonardo da Vinci, who studied in a Florence painters’ guild. However, Old Masters paintings, prints and other art is now used to refer to work made by any artist with a high level of skill in painting, drawing, sculpture or printmaking who worked in Europe between 1300 and 1800. Some artists considered Old Masters include William Blake, Caravaggio, Jacques-Louis David, Frans Hals, Francisco Goya, Peter Paul Rubens, Leonardo da Vinci, Michelangelo, Rembrandt, Titian and Jan Vermeer. On 1stDibs, find a variety of paintings from some of the world’s top galleries.
- 1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022Pablo Picasso was 36 years old when he painted his “Harlequin” series. He completed the six paintings in 1901. They depict scenes from Parisian cafes and draw inspiration from the works of Edgar Degas, Édouard Manet, Vincent van Gogh, Paul Gauguin and Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec. You'll find a selection of Pablo Picasso art on 1stDibs.
- 1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022The value of an oil painting depends on the quality and artist. Work with an appraiser to determine the value. While some online resources can be helpful when you’re looking for information about the value of an item, the suggested value you find may not be the actual value of your item, since that will depend on a number of factors, including the shape it’s in. Browse a selection of expertly vetted authentic vintage oil paintings on 1stDibs.
- 1stDibs ExpertAugust 20, 2024There are two main ways to know if your old painting is worth money. First, you can conduct online research using trusted resources to determine how much similar paintings by the artist have sold for in the past. If you're unsure who the artist is, try the app Smartify, which provides identifications using artists' signatures. A second option is to have a certified appraiser or knowledgeable art dealer evaluate your piece. On 1stDibs, shop a wide range of paintings.
- 1stDibs ExpertOctober 24, 2024Whether old copies of paintings are worth something varies. Prints of paintings produced and then signed by the artist may sometimes have significant value. However, later prints and hand-painted reproductions are less likely to be worth something. The age, condition, medium and other factors will all contribute to the potential price of a copy. If you'd like to get a professional's opinion on the value of a particular piece, a certified appraiser or experienced art dealer can assist you. On 1stDibs, find a wide range of paintings.
- 1stDibs ExpertOctober 24, 2024To find out how much an old painting is worth, you have two main options. The first is to look at historic sale prices for similar paintings by the same artist. If you're unsure who painted your piece, try snapping a photo of the signature and conducting a search with the app Smartify. Because the condition, size and other characteristics play a major role in determining how much a painting is worth, you may prefer to take the second approach — having a certified appraiser or experienced art dealer evaluate your painting. On 1stDibs, shop a large selection of paintings.
