Once a visitor told me that my apartment looks like a little museum or curiosity cabinet. I liked the comparison as I feel it resembles my personality. A home filled with treasures from afar, personal items, and thrifted goodies – that is my home indeed. I also love art on the walls. Sometimes it happens that I discover a great piece of art in a museum or exhibition and wish I could have it at home too – as an original painting, ha! I know that is impossible. But I am also not always happy to live with a framed poster of a famous painting. So I was looking for an alternative. That is how I stumbled upon Kunstkopie.de (find the US, UK, and EU source at the end of the blog post). Let me tell you more!

A few years ago I visited an exhibit of bohemian paintings in the Grand Palais in Paris. I discovered one painting that I never saw before but I was instantly enchanted. I gazed at it and when I got closer to read the description I was stunned: it was a painting by Charles Landelle from 1872. But the most stunning part was its title: Jeune bohémien serbe. The young Serbian bohemian. I am of Serbian descent and I am bohemian in my soul so it almost felt like this is me (ok we do not resemble a lot but still). I bought a small postcard and framed it – ever since it is hanging above my bar cart. But I dreamt of having this portrait as a big oil painting. And this was made possible by Kunstkopie.de.
Kunstkopie.de is a great source for art at home. Of cours...
