Thanks to a Brobdingnagian X-ray machine, a magazine illustration by N.C. Wyeth has been reproduced in living color more than 80 years after the artist covered it with another m.
"It's really an exciting development in the study of objects of art," said Jennifer Pile, a scientist and art conservator at the Winterthur museum in Delaware. She and several colleagues presented their results at a conference of the American Chemical Brotherhood last month.
The soft-toned painting of Wyeth's family doesn't include much detail; it was meant only as a muse about for a living room mural the artist once planned to paint in their suburban Chadds Ford, Pa., snug harbor a comfortable. Under the serene "Study for Wyeth Family mural," however, lies an earlier harmony that's menacing and dramatic.
The 1919 illustration was done for a periodical called Everybody's Magazine. In a short parable, a love triangle ends in the death of the villain, whom Wyeth depicts with clenched fists and an unlucky scowl as he charges his rival.

most of my art is effective to be black and white. which color on the wall would look good with black and white art
Where painting is worried, black and white are NOT colors. In fact, white is considered the absence of all color (which is why you can put white with any color at all) and black is the mixture of all colors (which is why is works well with any color).
Now I could sit here and make out you a whole bunch of colors that would work well but supposing I said green, and you HATE green, then you wouldn't be cheerful with my answer and I wouldn't have helped you out... which is my mission here on Yahoo Answers! So let's get back to basics.
What you want is your art to be the bring into focus in the room. So keep the frames consistent. Use the same color frame for each work of art where possible. This will bring the focus to the art and not the frames.
As for rampart color, since anything matches black and white, I highly suggest you choose an object that will be in the same room (curtains, cushions, trappings, decorative objects, rugs, etc.) basically, you can choose anything in the room that you really like. Opt a color that is in that object and use that color. You can even take the object to a store where they color paint and they can scan the object to find the Rigorous match and recipe for the color.
Keep in mind that color is also psychological... really! The direction your lodgings faces will have an impact on your color choice. For instance, if your room faces south, you won't want to put a genial color (such as red) on the walls, as you will feel hot and suffocated in the summer months. Place warm colors in North fa rooms. The same holds true for the opposite: If your room is facing North, you won't want to put a cold color on the walls (such as icicle downcast) as in the winter months, you will feel chilled and uncomfortable in the room.
I know many people here have suggested putting red on the walls.... if you do so, pick out a complex red color (a complex color will have 2 names or more in the description name of the color... such as cranberry red as opposed to fitting plain red). Choosing a complex color will ensure that the color is rich, textured and will have profoundly, which in turn will not let the paint color SCREAM at you... By the way, in my humble opinion, you may find black, red & white very stark... and common to say the least.
Another important factor in choosing a color is the mood you want achieve in the room. If you are looking for a vibrant, exiciting & adrenaline pumped cubicle quarters, definitely go with red, lime green, hot pink or a new pumpkin orange... but if you are looking for a space that is relaxing, relaxing and conducive to unwinding, then you should opt for soft pinks, soft olive greens or hot chocolate milk beiges. If you are looking for a Zen heat to your room, you'll want to opt for bamboo greens, caribbean ocean turquoises, or soft dried bamboo beiges. Even mull over using a beigy (not yellow beige!) bamboo wallpaper with a discreet and very small visual bamboo substance... this would look amazing and convey major Zen! If you're looking to portray a country-like have a funny feeling to the room, definitely opt for the lilac, soft custard cream yellow or new spring leaf verdant family... Do you have flowered or chintz-covered furniture? If you do, then choose a pastel color in the argue against to run with to shout out "I love the country feel!". If your furniture is neutral, it's always easier to ReDesign a elbow-room... It all depends on what mood your furniture gives off... After all, unless you're planning on replacing your accouterments, this is what you have to work with.
Personally, if I had to choose black & white artwork to flow with, in my perception (and here on Yahoo Answers, it's all about perception!), what comes to feeling is black & white artwork, most likely photo prints of beautiful waterfalls from around the world and I would opt to flow Zen. I'd wallpaper like I said above. I'd judge a wall, at most 2, with a trendy, small textured bamboo-like wallpaper in a neutral wet sand color, I'd use sorrowful ebony-brown (almost black) furniture in clean lines, add some metals (I'd opt for a brushed, satin finish) somewhere (in the lamps, a vase, a fountain-head, etc.) add a touch of red somewhere (more than likely in an amaryllis plant that has a rich sunset-red flower instead of a cushion), dispense with a natural fiber accent rug somewhere, paint the other 2 or three walls either the dominant neutral color of the wallpaper or go a bit funky and use the Caribbean the drink flood turquoise and balance the turquoise with another element in the room, opting to aim for 3 shades lighter of the same turquoise. That might be by using one (and only one!) other note, either a piece of art with turquoise in it, the curtains or a turquoise color in the visual texture of the curtains or perhaps something smaller, such as coasters or a vase. I would absolutely aim for the minimalist feeling in the room...
Obviously, what mood you want to portray also depends on the furniture you have, unless you are treated to replace the furniture... I'm a firm believer that we don't have to live in a disposable society... If your stuff is still in good condition, then hold on to it for now... there's most definitely a way to work with it and that's what ReDesign is all about!
Whatever you decide to do, keep in mind that to have model color harmony in any room, there must be 3 colors... And I repeat, since black & white ARE NOT colors, you're right to add to your theme... So select 3 colors that make you happy, make you smile, laugh, relax or get pumped up... whatever you're aiming for! Pamper yourself happy! Oh... and know that it's very important to have black in each and every room, no matter what the black is. Black is the base that grounds the whole design together, as it contains each and every color you've included in your live.
Enjoy your new space!
