On this page I tried to categorize photos according to popular decor themes. Some themes lend themselves to this task more than others. I recently added a separate page for Christian Wall Decor, and the Lighthouse category below somewhat overlaps with my Decor Nautical page. And I now realize that the Asian category is too broad. I'm considering how to expand it to maybe include Japan, China, and India sections, without leaving out other important regions or cultures.
I am continuing to add new themes. If you want ideas for your theme, and it's not listed below, send me an e-mail. I'll find you some good options and add it to this page!

Felice Beato photographed in Asia from the 1850s to the 1890s. He was one of the first to photograph in Asia, and one of the first war photographers (Crimean War, 1855). His best work is the portraits he did in Japan, of people in traditional clothing, going about their traditional way of life. Some of these would work well when you need a grouping of similar pictures. You can see all his available prints at the Felice Beato Art.com page. |
