Dark academia wall art

Warm browns, deep shadows and old masters: the look of a library lit by lamps. These prints use the inks of the old print room, bistre, sepia and sanguine red, on warm paper.

A Rembrandt portrait engraved in red chalk tones, John Singer Sargent’s Hagia Sophia and Ambrosius Bosschaert’s flowers rocked out of a dark mezzotint ground, Hogarth’s dervishes in sepia line and Brookshaw’s plums on near-black. They hang well with dark wood, books and brass.
