I recently moved into a new place & have somehow managed to finally admit to myself that if I hang the 3 framed Frank Ocean posters, a framed Bernie Sanders print (arguably shouldn’t since its the ‘We All Deserve a Future’ one from 2016 and he clearly does not think anyone in Gaza deserves one…), the damn Chapo Pizzagate poster they did back in 2017, and a fucking framed Dream of the Fisherman’s Wife ukiyo-e (it was a CHRISTMAS GIFT FROM MY SISTER) on my wall - the next person I invite over to hang out and/or have sex with me is going to leave with the impression that I am your average /r/malelivingspace poster or worse.

And yes, for what it is worth, I do have an equal/greater number of actual pictures taken of me, my friends, and family that are already hung up but I’m not getting a 18x24 canvas of my siblings and I at an amusement park when an 8x10 of the same photo is already arguably too big. So yeah, looking mainly for larger wall-art/posters/etc but it doesn’t have to be. It can be as small as a 5x7, provided it is actually worth getting printed/framed.

Public domain/stuff I wouldn’t be stealing out of the pockets of a living artist if I printed it myself is preferred - but if you have a suggestion that is actually being sold by someone, feel free to suggest it I’m not adverse to spending money on wall decorations/art.

See comment below for some examples of the kind of public domain/etc stuff I’ve found and put into the Maybe pile thus far.

Thanks for your service.

    I’m a big fan of Nathan Nun. You’ll love his stuff if you’re a cat person.

    My wife & I actually commissioned him to do some art of our cats. This is kitty number 1, this is kitty number 2. Here’s his Etsy store.

    Other than that, printing out some old Soviet or Cuban propaganda posters is always a favourite choice for me, particularly if you’d like to avoid spending any money.
