FAQs

Naive art is characterised by a non-professional, simplistic approach to perspective, proportion, and colour, often created by self-taught artists capturing everyday rural scenes.

Artists typically used oil paints applied to wooden panels, millboard, or cardboard preparations, framed in handcrafted wooden surrounds often featuring chip-carved or rustic details.

Authenticity is assessed through the ageing of the oil medium, board composition, oxidisation of pigments, hand-carved framing characteristics, and historical provenance.

Such pieces add character and warmth to modern spaces when hung against neutral plastered walls, creating a focal point that contrasts textures and introduces historical narrative.

Keep the artwork away from direct sunlight, maintain stable humidity and temperature levels, and avoid chemical cleaners on the painted surface or antique frame.
