10 Paintings I’d Love to Hang in My Home
After diving into over 300 art history paintings, I was inspired to curate my very own home wall masterpiece.
Selecting just 10 paintings was a challenge, but I’ve compiled a list that captures my current favorites.
As I continue to explore and study more artwork, this collection is sure to evolve.
Without further ado, here are 10 paintings I can’t wait to hang on my workspace wall.
1. The Hard lesson by William-Adolphe Bouguereau
Almost a year ago, my mind was not in a peaceful space. I was frequently overwhelmed and constantly judged my actions. Even after working for hours, my productivity waned.
Perhaps I was nostalgic and wanting to go back to simpler times.
At that moment, I came across this innocent beautiful painting on Quora. It surely melted my heart — The Hard lesson by William-Adolphe Bouguereau.
Was this painting a metaphor for that “very moment” and self-realization to not take life so seriously?
I think it was.
