Old Master paintings are a class of paintings that are considered to be the most valuable and famous in the artworld.
This is because, for one thing, they were all completed during the 18th century. They were also painted by artists who are now considered to be among the best painters that ever lived.
Many of these painters were highly skilled at painting portraits and other subjects. They also had a deep understanding of perspective and anatomy, which allowed them to paint very realistic-looking scenes.
