Framed Vintage Posters
Something is called "vintage" when it's from a high quality representation of a period in the past. Vintage wall art includes vintage ads, art deco posters, art nouveau works and other vintage posters reminiscent of the industrialization of America and the world. While many people associate the word "vintage" with a specific wine "vintage," a lot of vintage art includes imagery of wine.
Using vintage wall art in your home is an amazing way to celebrate periods in the past while also adding a rustic, worldly flair. Frame a vintage poster with a weathered brown or glamorous gold frame to change the look and feel of your artwork. Finishing your art ensures that your vintage print matches your existing decor and fits into your space.
When it comes to decorating with vintage posters, you should start by selecting a piece that matches your existing decor. If you're hanging vintage art in your living room and your furniture is cherry or espresso, select a similarly colored frame to unite the overall look and feel of the room. In terms of selecting your specific vintage art print, try to find one with colors that match your existing decor.
That said, selecting a vintage ad that contains your favorite wine, liquor, military branch or even an animal is a great way to add some vintage art while also touching upon a subject you love! Famous artists, such as Leonetto Cappiello, the father of advertising, bring various products and subjects to life in their coloful, lively renditions of everyday objects.
Another great option is vintage movie posters. Movie posters from classic movies have also become trendy as home decor. Posters from "Casablanca" and "Attack of the 50 Foot Woman" were created by hand and the artists put their style into it. During their time they attracted people to a specific move. Now, they attract art lovers. "Rosie the Riveter" and "Uncle Sam – I Want You" posters are some of the most famous posters known and recognized today.
