Questions About Antique Plein Air
- What is a plein air frame?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertAugust 17, 2021A plein air frame is a simple, unembellished wooden frame, usually gold-colored. These frames are typically used to mount plein air paintings, which are painted outdoors. Because of the constraints of painting in nature, the paintings and accompanying frames tend to be small.
- What does plein air mean?1 AnswerLilac Gallery Ltd.March 18, 2021The 'Plein air' is a French expression that means “in the open air.” And it is a term used by artists to describe when the painting was executed outside or outdoors, in contrast to painting inside of a studio. This method became very relevant in the 19th-century when French impressionism was centered in painting outdoors, with a strong sense of the open air, capturing landscapes or cityscapes on-site, at the location where the subject depicted was painted.
