Framed Dark Color Art
Dark colors often bring with it dark art but, just like anything else there are exceptions. With framed dark color art one can find calm, relaxing, soothing, and gentle pieces as well as those with a dark air about them. There are some artists that aren’t in a dark place they just prefer to use darker colors to make their pieces. Many artists from the renaissance period used dark colors in their paintings.
Rembrandt van Rijn’s painting from 1632 titled “The Anatomy Lesson of Dr. Nicolaes Tulp is a good example of a dark painting that didn’t carry a dark message with it. “The Astronomer” by Johannes Vermeer in 1668 is another famous painting that relied on the darker colors. Leonardo Da Vinci also created framed dark color paintings during his time that are quite beautiful and still sought after by art lovers.
Framed dark colored artwork can also be fun and bring a smile to the lips with pieces like “Dog Barking at the Moon” by Joan Miro. Rey Pelley and Will Bullas use dark colors to make some creative and fun paintings that are perfect for bars like “The Bar Bill” and “Extra Olives.”
Franz Marc painted on of the most famous dark colored abstracts in 1913 titled “Fate of Animals” which leaves it open to the interpretation of the viewer. This is a classic piece that can look different to you every day. Between 1821 and 1823 Francisco De Goya painted on of the most remembered and darkest paintings using dark colors called “Saturn Devouring One of His Children.” This is one of the dark pictures that often these colors are associated with.
