 | Still Life by Russell Stockman, S. Ebert-Schifferer
From the time of the ancient Greeks and Romans, people have decorated their homes with the charming pictures of fruit, flowers, and common objects known as still lifes. Full of new information and beautiful illustrations of works by da Vinci, Brueghel, Caravaggio, Manet, Picasso, Van Gogh, Cezanne, Lichtenstein, Hockney, and scores of other famous and little-known artists, this fascinating history of the Western still life from antiquity to the present day is a pleasure to read and a joy to behold. Drawn from much new research, the text discusses not only the still lifes themselves but also their historical and social context in all periods and countries of origin. All types of images are featured: flower and fruit paintings, kitchen and market scenes, pictures of scientific marvels, trompe l'oeil works, and Pop and abstract still lifes. Sparkling with color and immediacy, Still Life offers a new understanding of this splendid artistic heritage. AUTHOR: Russell Stockman, S. Ebert-Schifferer
