Modernist Watercolor For Sale on 1stDibs

You are likely to find exactly the modernist watercolor you’re looking for on 1stDibs, as there is a broad range for sale. There are many Modern, Abstract and Contemporary versions of these works for sale. If you’re looking for a modernist watercolor from a specific time period, our collection is diverse and broad-ranging, and you’ll find at least one that dates back to the 20th Century while another version may have been produced as recently as the 21st Century. If you’re looking to add a modernist watercolor to create new energy in an otherwise neutral space in your home, you can find a work on 1stDibs that features elements of gray, beige, brown, blue and more. A modernist watercolor from Santos Rene Irizarry, Peter Emanuel Goldman, Rip Matteson, Ben-Zion Weinman and Avigdor Arikha — each of whom created distinctive versions of this kind of work — is worth considering. Frequently made by artists working in paint, watercolor and paper, these artworks are unique and have attracted attention over the years. A large modernist watercolor can prove too dominant for some spaces — a smaller modernist watercolor, measuring 2 high and 1.2 wide, may better suit your needs.

How Much is a Modernist Watercolor?

The price for an artwork of this kind can differ depending upon size, time period and other attributes — a modernist watercolor in our inventory may begin at $99 and can go as high as $86,722, while the average can fetch as much as $989.
