Express your “hip” style while honoring “history” with eclectic hipstoric artwork. In a rejection of mass-produced products, hipstoric décor is a return to antiques, refreshed with eclectic modern accents.
HIPSTORIC WALL ART
What is Hipstoric Wall Art?
Hipstoric wall art is a rejection of generic, mass-produced art in favor of deeply meaningful art with a nostalgic nod to family history or personal experiences.
Historic subjects and editing styles are reminiscent of old photography technology, then elevated with a modern twist.
Often in a sepia-tone, hipstoric artwork is reminiscent of old photos. Slightly blurred or out-of-focus shots are preferred over modern, high-definition photos.
Hipstoric styles feature a historic subject with a modern twist, such as images of Greek Statues juxtaposed with modern, thought provoking edits.
What’s the Difference Between Vintage, Antique, and Hipstoric Décor?
Vintage and antique décor consists of furniture, colors, and accessories popular in an earlier time period, whereas hipstoric décor is a modern, often eclectic take on old trends.
Any piece of furniture, art, or decor that is 30-100 years old is considered “vintage.” Any piece over 100 years old is classified as “antique.”
Often described as “vintage reimaged,” hipstoric décor gives a room history, character, and soul, while maintaining a light and fun energy.
How to Style Hipstoric Art
When paired with your favorite family heirloom or latest antiquing find, hipstoric art gives your space an eclectic, cozy, lived-in feel.
Hipstoric art is often paired with rustic furniture made from dark wood and upholstered with richly textured leather or velvet.
Don’t be afraid to paint a wall a deep color such as brown or green, reminiscent of the forest. Hang your hipstoric wall art on this accent wall to add depth and create visual interest.
Natural accents of blue or red in your hipstoric wall art and decorative throw pillows draw interest and make your hipstoric space feel warm and welcoming.

This is a phenomenal print with a unique retro vibe. My wife and I purchased this print (along with another from artist Frank Moth) to add some 70’s surrealism to our living room. This is our third print we’ve purchased and I highly recommend both this artist and Big Wall Decor.

Love this artwork. The colors are very vibrant and red is my favorite. The only thing I would change is the lack of texture in the fabric. More texture would hopefully imitate the look of canvas.

I love it! Super easy to assemble and it’s beautiful. Although she’s not going to stay where she’s sitting, I had to post and write a rewrite.. I cannot wait to get another piece.
