About Dark Academia

Dark Academia Wall Art

Dark Academia is an exciting subculture and aesthetic that calls back to the classic days of liberal education institutions. While the style encompasses literature, calligraphy, poetry, and clothes, Dark Academia wall art is another way to express your love for this nostalgic trend.

What is Dark Academia wall art?

Dark Academia wall art describes paintings and canvas prints representing this growing subculture. Many pieces draw inspiration from Gothic or Greek art and architectural styles and feature shadowy candlelit scenes that recall the academic mores of yesteryear.

Dark Academia is a throwback to the past. It offers a romantic view of university education at a time when it was a preservation of the elite, drawing inspiration from secret societies, eccentric characters, and obscure aspects of campus life.

What are the characteristics of Dark Academia wall decor?

Dark Academia wall decor includes a mix of classical paintings and more recent representations of Gothicism and flourishes of the occult. Typical color schemes include black and gray or muted brown and orange hues.

Popular subject matter includes florals, dark abstracts, landscapes, portraits, and skulls, but all through the lens of this shadowy and nostalgic style. Dark Academia carries a vintage edge, blended with an educational appreciation for antiquity and tradition.

What really stands out about Dark Academia is its solemn and gloomy tone. Many pieces verge on the macabre, representing academic spaces as shadowy halls where dark secrets abound. The style draws primarily from the early to mid-20th century, but the gothic elements lend a certain temporal ambiguity to the movement that meshes well with its celebration of the arcane.

How to choose the right Dark Academia canvas prints?

Picking the right Dark Academia canvas prints depends on your existing design elements and your interpretation of this unique style. The overall palette of black, brown, and gray that is emblematic of the Dark Academia creates some restrictions, but there is room to maneuver in both accents and subject matter.

Dark Academia wall decor is an opportunity to represent your educational interests, be they scientific, literary, architecture, poetry, or more. You can find prints that represent typical Dark Academia subject matter, including books, candles, and a range of mysterious objects. Alternatively, you can select a piece of classical fine art that helps achieve the look.

Explore our weird and wonderful collection of Dark Academia canvas prints to find the perfect accompaniment to your beguiling academic aesthetic.
