Paintings for the Living Room
Recreated by Hand
The living room is where a painting works hardest: it sets the mood of the house, starts conversations and is seen every day. This collection brings together famous paintings that look magnificent above a sofa, a fireplace or a long sideboard, from Van Gogh's The Starry Night and Monet's Water Lilies to Hokusai's Great Wave, Renoir's Luncheon of the Boating Party and Friedrich's Wanderer. Every painting is hand-painted in oil on real canvas, in the size your wall needs.

Choosing a Living Room Painting
Measure the wall, decide on the mood, then choose a painting that can hold the room.
I.
Painted by hand
A trained painter rebuilds the image in oils, with visible brushwork, layered colour and the small details that make the original come alive. These are not canvas prints.
II.
The whole painting, never cropped
Every reproduction keeps the full composition at its true proportions. Choose a size that suits your wall and the painting is scaled, never cut or stretched.
III.
Size, framing and delivery
Select a size and presentation on the artwork page, or contact ByMuseum for a custom dimension. Every reproduction includes free worldwide shipping.
FAQ
Questions About Paintings for Living Room
Useful answers before you choose a hand-painted reproduction.
01.
What size painting should go above a sofa?
As a rule, choose a painting about two thirds of the width of the sofa, hung 15 to 25 cm above the back. Wide landscapes suit long sofas; a pair of tall paintings suits a short one.
02.
Which famous paintings suit a living room?
The Starry Night, Monet's Water Lilies, The Great Wave, Klimt's The Kiss and Renoir's Luncheon of the Boating Party are among the most popular living room choices.
03.
Should living room art match the colours of the room?
It helps to pick up one or two colours from the room, such as the blue of a sofa or the warm wood of the floor, but a strong painting can also set the palette for the whole room.
04.
Are these paintings prints?
No. Every ByMuseum reproduction is painted by hand in oil on canvas, with real brushwork and texture.
05.
Can I order a custom size?
Yes. Choose a size on the artwork page or contact ByMuseum for a custom dimension; the composition is never cropped or stretched.
