Still Life

Giorgio Morandi
  • Original Title: Natura Morta
  • Date: 1946
  • Style: Magic Realism
  • Genre: still life
  • Media: oil

Morandi repeatedly painted the same selection of familiar items, including bottles, bowls, pots and boxes. In his paintings, they lose their domestic purpose, to become sculptural objects that invite meditation and contemplation. Through repeated scrutiny of these simple items, Morandi created a sense of timelessness. However, his fondness for the earthy colours of his native Bologna helps to anchor such works in the artist's own life and surroundings.
