Tamara de Lempicka’s stuff reminds me of the last-generation Rand covers.
Every now and then you can find a poster of the original cover of the Fountainhead with a Rand quote beneath it on Ebay.
I liked some of Sophia’s recommendations, they were very dreamy.
Thanks to everyone who has responded to this thread! I really loved Sophia’s suggestions, and I also really like several of your suggestions, cilphex. I haven’t gotten time to actually buy any posters yet (very sadly) - man… need to work on my priorities.
I’m a college student. I have a room (not in a dorm - my very own!) and also an office. Both have blank, white walls.
Basically, I’m looking for recommendations on good posters I can buy to put on the walls (hopefully, posters that I can order online).
I don’t know of any good Objectivist-themed posters, so those would be most welcome. Also, anything Romantic art-related. Or just what any of you find appealing - from what I’ve gathered, most regular participants on this forum have very good taste.
If anyone has any suggestions, please make a post! Even if some of the suggestions aren’t ideal for me, they may come in handy for some other college-aged people on this forum.
Also, if anyone has any good advice on cheaply decorating rooms in general, let us know. (Unfortunately, I can’t afford prints of the sort Sophia has linked to several times - yet).

I have a poster of Tiananmen Square. I always liked the image of a lone man standing in front of a column of advancing tanks (do a google image search for Tiananmen Square if you don’t know what picture I’m talking about). You can find it on most of the big poster sites.
I recently bought the below print from the Norman Rockwell Store. I love his realism and sense-of-life.

Romantic Realist painter Theo van Oostrom has prints of his work available for under $40. I own “Prime Mover,” “Reaching Higher,” and “Living It.” The quality of the prints is quite good. His website is here.
