About Still Life

The artwork, titled “Still Life,” was created by Giorgio Morandi in 1916. It is part of the Metaphysical art movement and belongs to the genre of still life.

In the artwork, one observes a composition that transcends the traditional realm of still life, embodying the essence of Metaphysical art. The depiction features geometric shapes, including spheres and lines, meticulously arranged within a framed structure. The subdued color palette, consisting of muted tones, enhances the sense of serenity and contemplation. The strategic placement of shadows and light infuses the composition with a subtle, almost surreal, dimensionality. This deliberate abstraction of everyday objects evokes a sense of introspection, inviting the viewer to ponder the underlying metaphysical essence of the mundane.
