Amazon launches Amazon Art marketplace with over 40,000 fine artworks

Amazon has just announced the Amazon Art marketplace, giving users access to 40,000 pieces of fine art from over 150 dealers and galleries. More than 4,500 artists will be represented at launch, making the site one of the largest online collections available, according to the company. Amazon said it aims to "demystify the world of art," by giving users a "gallery experience" while browsing collections of paintings, photos, prints and more. High-end galleries like Paddle8 and Holden Luntz will be represented from the US, UK, the Netherlands and Canada, featuring pieces ranging from a $200 Clifton Ross photo to a $200,000 Warhol to a $2.5 million Monet. On top of high quality images and detailed information about each piece, you'll be able to learn about the artist, provenance and exhibition history. You can even filter your search by subject, color, size and price, so if all that sounds better than dickering at a gallery, hit the source.
