How We Would Style It:
We are big fans of styling portrait paintings in groupings. Perhaps in an entryway styled going up the walls near a staircase. A guest bedroom completely covering every inch of the walls, a living room above a fireplace, alone in a powder bath, or in a kitchen resting on an open shelf. For collectors of portraits, this would make a fantastic addition.
