About the Item
Amazing Oil on canvas depicting a magnificent still life. Executed during the 20th century, following Baroque models. Signed and dated in the lower right corner "Peñalba Font, 1967".
It displays the characteristic style of its genre: realistic and meticulous, which gradually gained importance in art history. The great artist Caravaggio (1573-1610) was one of the first artists to depict still lifes with a sense of being a painterly work, but many others used them at some point in their careers. Originating in antiquity and very popular in Western art since the 17th century, still lifes give the artist more compositional freedom than other pictorial genres such as landscapes or portraits. Before 1700, they often contained religious and allegorical symbolism related to the objects they depicted.
Also known as nature morts, they often feature animals, flowers, fruits, foods, plants, and so on. Their development falls within the context of a growing appreciation for painting and the explosion of interest in naturalism and the imitation of nature that began to develop at the end of the previous century.
The work, as is common in its genre, stands out for its sobriety of composition. The background is neutral, ochre-toned, and the various elements are arranged on a dark wood surface. A dark green glass bottle, a clay jug, two white eggs, a cloth and a gilded brass utensil appear.
