As we adapt to life during a pandemic, many people are transitioning to working from home. This is not always easy, but we here at overstockArt want to try and help you feel more productive in this new work environment. We think that adding the right piece of art can transform any room into a better working space. Here are some of our top choices.<\/p>\n

Leonardo da Vinci –\u00a0Female Head (La Scapigliata)<\/em><\/strong><\/a><\/h4>\n

Female Head (La Scapigliata)<\/em> is a beautiful example of portraiture by one of the greatest artists of the Renaissance period. Leonardo da Vinci had a passion for creativity in many forms, including art and science. He was never afraid to attempt a new project and as a result, he was able to master a wide range of activities. This could be just the inspiration you need to take on something new and succeed while at home.<\/p>\n

Gustav Klimt –\u00a0The Apple Tree<\/em><\/strong><\/a><\/h4>\n

Gustav Klimt’s mature style combines richly decorative surface patterning with complex symbolism in this piece, called The Apple Tree<\/em>.

Justyna Kopania –\u00a0Nostalgy<\/strong><\/em><\/a><\/h4>\n

With its fractured image and rich range of tones, Nostalgy<\/em> by Justyna Kopania is instantly engaging. This painting includes a full-sailed ship navigating calm waters, but the sharp lines and textures of the canvas add a dynamic element to an otherwise placid scene. This would be the perfect painting to add a more serious tone to your home workspace.<\/p>\n

August Macke –\u00a0House in a Landscape<\/strong><\/em><\/a><\/h4>\n

If you love a focus on color and design in your artwork, you’ll adore this reproduction of August Macke’s House in a Landscape<\/em>. He gave this ordinary scene an elevated and almost magical perspective through the use of exaggerated shapes and colors. Such a piece would be perfect hanging in the home office of someone with a job that required a lot of creativity.<\/p>\n

Edward Hopper-Macomb’s Dam Bridge<\/strong><\/em><\/a><\/h4>\n

In Macomb’s Dam Bridge<\/em>, Edward Hopper reflects on the fast pace of modern society by grinding life to a halt in his image of a quiet country bridge. Defying the hustle and bustle of New York City, Hopper shows the bridge in the stillness of the morning, Embrace the beauty of isolation as you gaze at the world created in this painting during your work hours.<\/p>\n

Henri Rousseau –\u00a0A Carnival Evening<\/strong><\/em><\/a><\/h4>\n

Enter a world of wonder and mystery that is created by Henri Rousseau in A Carnival Evening<\/em>. At first, the combination of character in the scene appear out of place, but the artist uses the cool tones of the color palette to bring them together brilliantly. This would be the perfect work of art to give you an escape after a stressful day of office duties.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Vincent van Gogh –\u00a0Starry Night<\/em><\/strong><\/a><\/h4>\n
