Art
of Enduring Value
Northern Light Art offers two genre of paintings: (1) Vintage paintings from Northern Europe, ca 1890-1940. (2) Abstract art by contemporary (living) artists. In both genre, the aim is to provide a momentary glimpse into the "eternal," into timeless truths about life, preferably the Sweetness, Beauty, and Love that is all about. Another common trait is color. For the Vintage paintings, it's the "French Palette," i.e. the treatment of light, color, and shape as perfected by the Impressionists. For Abstract art, it's the multi-layered application of bright and hopeful colors. Vintage paintings come primarily from Denmark, where we acquire them at auction; the motive being that Danes were among the first to study with the Impressionists in the 1880s and 90s. Applying the French Palette to representative scenes or motifs in Denmark,with its diffused light, the style is known as Post-Representative. All of which explains why they're elegant, beyond trends and time. Abstract Art by contemporary artists complement Modernist pieces, primarily from the 1940s. Whether Abstract or Vintage, the American painter, Robert Henri said it best, "That which is worthwhile in painting is the expression of human emotion in it."
