Convex oval artworks—paintings on gently curved ("bubble") boards or glass—have a rich legacy across European decorative art, especially from the 18th to the early 20th centuries. The oval format, used since the 18th century in France, originated in Renaissance and Baroque architecture for coats of arms and cartouches. Overdoors and portraits were often painted or inset into matching oval shapes with rocaille and leaf motifs Convex framing creates a subtle three-dimensional effect, making landscapes appear more dynamic and drawing attention through gentle curvature and light refraction. Such pieces meld fine art and decorative art, offering both artistic charm and decorative elegance in living spaces.
