About Still Life

The artwork titled “Still Life” is a creation of Giorgio Morandi, executed in 1960 using watercolor on paper. It aligns with the Art Informel and Magic Realism movements and falls within the still life genre.

The artwork presents a minimalist composition featuring a subtle arrangement of objects. The forms are rendered with delicate, muted washes of color, primarily in shades of blue, brown, and beige. Morandi’s mastery of watercolor technique is evident in the soft transitions and the use of negative space, which imbue the piece with a sense of quietude and simplicity. The sparse and subdued palette, along with the gentle suggestion of shapes, evokes a contemplative atmosphere, characteristic of Morandi’s meditative approach to still life.
