Room Paintings holds 12 paintings by Narcisse Virgilio Díaz de la Peña, from The Met, the National Gallery of Art, the Art Institute of Chicago and the Cleveland Museum of Art. They date from 1852 to 1876. We file most of them under Barbizon School, and some under Romanticism. The most common subjects are forests and trees, landscapes and rivers and lakes. All of them suit a room in our lists, most often the bedroom and living room.
