Still Life Painting

Still life painting has been present since antiquity, adorning the interiors of wealthy homes and tombs in Egypt, Greece, and Rome. There, murals and mosaics have been found depicting a wide variety of food, fruits, flowers, and animals, reflecting the belief that these would become real in the afterlife. Still life painting reached its peak in the 16th century during the Baroque period and remains one of the most representative genres of modern art. Discover our collection of still life paintings!
