Buying artworks on the theme of "Fish"
Worthy representatives of the oceans, the underwater world and aquatic life, fish are often an original subject of inspiration for artists. Of all sizes, colors and shapes, fish offer us a variety of amazing animals. Reef clownfish, goldfish in a jar, whale shark crossing offshore, sardines ready to be eaten on the plate… The fish in painting offers us a great diversity of pictorial representations. Paint the fins, represent the shine of the scales, simulate movement in water and why not sketch a small bubble rising to the surface, an exercise not as easy as one might imagine for painters who try it out! Among the works of fish that have remained famous, we can mention in particular Paul Klee's "GoldFish" or Matisse's "Red fish".
