Art under $500

While prices rise for nearly everything we need or want to buy, art doesn't necessarily. Because prices are predicated on demand, and because tastes change, some amazing works of art become available for little money. Here is an overview of what is available in our inventory right now for $500 or less; sometimes much less! We have beautiful works starting at just $125. Why not splurge on something that costs less than a fancy restaurant for four people, and actually will bring you joy for a lifetime?
As an added "sweetener", we have made shipping on everything over $250 free in the US (and just $75 international). Anything $250 and under will incur a $20 charge ($95 international).
