What are the advantages of our Gallery ?

 

If you are looking for a specific painting :

 

Basically in the Web Galleries, you can consult either by selecting the name of the artist, or the theme of your choice, the dominant color of the painting, its size or its price range which means searching with just one criterion in mind.

 

Multicriteria searching can help you save time.

 

Select a maximum of 4 criteria from the 6 listed (themes, techniques, name of the painter, dominant color of the painting, size, budget).

Click on a criterion and choose "add a criterion" to validate each choice. Once you have selected 4 criteria, you can launch your search.

 

Each search comes up with a solution.

 

The number of paintings meeting each criterion is indicated in the menu.

 

Artop presents the widest possible range of choice in techniques and paintings.

 

Search by name of the artist:

 

Click on the name of the artist in the menu and click on "add a criterion" to validate your choice.

 

If you click on the artist’s name which is underlined  underneath the painting, you will discover his artistic background and sometimes a general commentary on the painter or information concerning his technique.

 

Clicking anywhere in the painting allows you to obtain details. The zoom lets you admire the artist’s technique.
