Valentine’s Day is a celebration of desire, intimacy, beauty, and emotion — themes that have shaped some of the most iconic images in fine art photography. For this special week of our Valentine’s Highlights, PREISS FINE ARTS presents a curated selection of works that explore love in all its visual expressions: sensual, romantic, provocative, playful, and timeless.
“Eva Herzigova for Givenchy” by MICHEL COMTE
limited edition of 3
Romantic escapism lies at the heart of David Drebin’s “Balloons over Paris”. Floating forms, softened light, and a dreamlike Parisian backdrop transform love into a cinematic reverie — a moment where romance feels suspended, weightless, and fleeting.
That sense of dreamlike sensuality finds a visual counterpoint in Iris Brosch’s “Powder and Tulle”. Draped fabric, ritualistic gesture, and sculptural composition shift desire inward, creating an image that feels mythic, intimate, and hypnotically charged.

Effortless intimacy defines Arthur Elgort’s “Gia on Fire Island, 1981”. The image reveals intimacy through observation — a private, behind-the-scenes moment where beauty exists before performance or perfection. Shot with natural light and unforced presence, it celebrates closeness, vulnerability, and the quiet intensity of truly seeing someone.

Bold sensuality meets playful excess in Tony Kelly’s “Breakup”. Saturated color and stylized glamour turn heartbreak into spectacle, blending eroticism and irony while reminding us that desire often thrives at the edge of chaos.

Fantasy and theatrical romance come alive in Kristian Schuller’s Works. Bold color, surreal styling, and heightened emotion create a dreamlike vision of desire that feels both playful and otherworldly.

Contemporary provocation surfaces sharply in Tyler Shields’s “Orchid”. The work balances beauty and confrontation, using minimal composition and symbolic tension to challenge romantic ideals and push desire into rebellious territory.
A quieter, more poetic intimacy emerges in Gérard Uféras’s “Heart Art”. Rendered in black and white, the image strips romance down to emotion and vulnerability, offering a timeless meditation on closeness and human connection.

This Valentine’s week, our highlights celebrate love not as a single idea, but as a spectrum of emotions and aesthetics — from quiet intimacy to bold seduction, from timeless romance to modern desire. Each artwork invites collectors to experience Valentine’s Day through the eyes of masters who have shaped how love is seen, felt, and remembered.
Framing can be organized by the gallery, and collectors are warmly invited to contact us to discuss available sizes, framing options, and worldwide shipping. With over 15 years of experience, PREISS FINE ARTS is delighted to assist in finding the perfect work to celebrate love — this Valentine’s Day and beyond.
