Finding the Right Paintings for You
Painting is an art form that has spanned innumerable cultures, with artists using the medium to tell stories, explore and communicate ideas and express themselves. To bring abstract paintings, landscape paintings, still-life paintings and other original paintings into your home is to celebrate and share in the long tradition of this discipline.
When we look at paintings, particularly those that originated in the past, we learn about history, other cultures and countries of the world. Like every other work of art, paintings — whether they are contemporary creations or works that were made during the 19th century — can often help us clearly see and understand the world around us in a meaningful and interesting way.
Cave walls were the canvases for what were arguably the world’s first landscape paintings, which depict natural scenery through art. Portrait paintings and drawings, which, along with sculpture, were how someone’s appearance was recorded prior to the advent of photography, are at least as old as Ancient Egypt. In the Netherlands, landscapes were a major theme for painters as early as the 1500s. Later, artists in Greece, Rome and elsewhere created vast wall paintings to decorate stately homes, churches and tombs.
Today, creating a wall of art is a wonderful way to enhance your space, showcase beautiful pieces and tie an interior design together.
No matter your preference, whether you favor Post-Impressionist paintings, animal paintings, Surrealism, Pop art or another movement or specific period, arranging art on a blank wall allows you to evoke emotions in a room while also showing off your tastes and interests. A symmetrical wall arrangement may comprise a grid of four to six pieces or, for an odd number of works, a horizontal row. Asymmetrical arrangements, which may be small clusters of art or large, salon-style gallery walls, have a more collected and eclectic feel.
Download the 1stDibs app, which includes a handy “View on Wall” feature that allows you to see how a particular artwork will look on a particular wall, and read about how to arrange wall art. And if you’re searching for the perfect palette for your interior design project, what better place to turn than to the art world’s masters of color?
On 1stDibs, you’ll find an expansive collection of paintings and other fine art for your home or office. Browse abstract paintings, portrait paintings, paintings by emerging artists and more today.
Questions About Marilyn Monroe Painting
- Who painted Marilyn Monroe?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertFebruary 22, 2021The famous Pop art Marilyn Monroe diptych silkscreen painting was created by artist Andy Warhol. The piece is one of his most famous and was sold in 1998 for $17.3 million. Find Andy Warhol paintings and other works for sale on 1stDibs.
- 1stDibs ExpertSeptember 16, 2024How much a Marilyn Monroe painting is worth varies based on its artist, size, history, condition and other factors. Andy Warhol is arguably the artist most famous for painting Monroe. In 2022, one of his Marilyn Monroe portraits sold for $195 million at auction, setting a new record price for works produced by an American artist. Another painting that depicts Monroe — the Boulevard of Broken Dreams, painted by Gottfried Helnwein — sold for more than $120,000 in 2017. If you own a painting of Marilyn Monroe, a certified appraiser or knowledgeable art dealer can help you determine its potential value. Shop a wide range of portrait paintings on 1stDibs.
- 1stDibs ExpertFebruary 21, 2024Andy Warhol painted Marilyn Monroe as a commentary on the media and celebrity culture. The American artist was quick to jump on mass media’s penchant for treating glamour and tragedy with equal weight. Monroe’s suicidal overdose in 1962 was ideal fodder, and he reproduced her visage dozens of times, first painting the canvas with splotches of pigment to denote her hair, eyeshadow and lips, then printing the black photographic silkscreen, taken from a 1953 publicity still, on the surface, either alone, doubled or repeated in a grid. By reproducing her image, Warhol sought to show how Monroe's fame and status as a sex symbol transformed her from being an individual person to a mass-market commodity. His work provided a sharp rebuke to the media's obsessive intrusion into the lives of celebrities. On 1stDibs, shop a selection of Andy Warhol art.
- 1stDibs ExpertMarch 15, 2024Many photographers took pictures of Marilyn Monroe. Gene Korman, a photographer employed by 20th Century Fox, captured the image that Andy Warhol used as the basis for his Marilyn Diptych.

On 1stDibs, find a large selection of photographic art.
- 1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022The iconic white dress Marilyn Monroe wore in the film “The Seven Year Itch” doesn’t have a specific name. It is a white ivory cocktail dress with a halter-like bodice, deep v-neckline and pleated skirt. Shop a selection of classic movie memorabilia on 1stDibs.
- 1stDibs ExpertSeptember 23, 2024Marilyn Monroe's pink dress wasn't called anything in particular when it debuted in 1953. However, some people now call it the "Gentlemen Prefer Blondes" dress, after the name of the film in which she sported the strapless pink piece. Others refer to it as the pink Travilla dress in honor of the man who designed it, William Travilla. On 1stDibs, find a large selection of vintage dresses from some of the world's top boutiques.
- 1stDibs ExpertFebruary 7, 2024Yes, Bob Mackie designed for Marilyn Monroe. Notably, the American fashion designer was responsible for creating the slinky gown that the actress wore when she sang "Happy Birthday" to then-president John F. Kennedy in 1962. Mackie also produced dresses for celebrities such as Lucille Ball, Carol Channing, Cher, Doris Day, Marlene Dietrich and Farrah Fawcett. On 1stDibs, shop a selection of Bob Mackie apparel.
- 1stDibs ExpertApril 26, 2024William Travilla designed Marilyn Monroe's pink dress. The iconic strapless dress appeared in the 1953 film Gentlemen Prefer Blondes. An accomplished costume designer, Travilla won an Academy Award for his work on the 1948 film The Adventures of Don Juan and was nominated for Oscars three more times across his career. Explore a variety of William Travilla apparel on 1stDibs.
- 1stDibs ExpertAugust 8, 2024William Travilla designed Marilyn Monroe's white dress. The actress wore the now-iconic dress in the 1955 film The Seven Year Itch. A celebrated costume designer, Travilla also created dresses for seven other Monroe films, including How to Marry a Millionaire and Gentlemen Prefer Blondes. In recognition of his work, the designer was nominated for several Academy and Emmy awards, and he won an Oscar for the costumes featured in the 1948 film Adventures of Don Juan. Explore a range of William Travilla apparel on 1stDibs.
- 1stDibs ExpertSeptember 9, 2024How much Marilyn Monroe's pink dress is worth today isn't fully known. In 2010, the iconic strapless dress the starlet wore in the 1953 film Gentlemen Prefer Blondes sold for around $370,000. If it were to return to auction, it may sell for even more. In 2024, a much less famous pink dress that Monroe sported for a Vogue photoshoot with photographer Bert Stern sold for $325,000. Find a large collection of vintage and contemporary dresses on 1stDibs.
- 1stDibs ExpertSeptember 16, 2024Andy Warhol's Marilyn Monroe is worth around $195 million. That's how much the silk-screen portrait sold for at an auction in 2022. The sale made history, as the price tag was a new record for the American Pop artist. Warhol's Marilyn series sought to critique society's fixation with glamor and fame, themes he returned to many times during his career. On 1stDibs, shop a collection of Andy Warhol art.
- 1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022In 1967, Andy Warhol began publishing a series of screen prints through his printing company, Factory Additions. Using a publicity image of Marilyn Monroe, Warhol printed 10 images from five screens: one was the original photograph and four others emphasized different areas of color to reflect Monroe’s vibrant personality. Browse a selection of Andy Warhol art, prints and photos from some of the world’s top dealers on 1stDibs.
