A still life is a painting depicting inanimate objects, such as vases, fruit or flowers. It is one of the oldest genres in painting and was already popular in the time of the ancient Greeks and Romans.
What is often depicted in a still life depends on the time and the artist. In the seventeenth century, for example, still lifes with flowers, fruit and dead animals were often seen. In the twentieth century, everyday objects such as bottles and jars were also depicted.
A still life appeals to people because it often exudes tranquillity and harmony. It depicts inanimate objects, but because of the way they are rendered, they seem to come alive. Moreover, a still life can remind the viewer of certain events or atmospheres from the past, such as a nice dinner or a flower market.
People like to hang a still life painting in the living room or kitchen. This is because these places are often seen as the places where it should be cosy and warm. Hanging a still life painting often gives these spaces a calm and relaxed atmosphere.
Now the question: is a still life painting an idea for your living room, kitchen or bedroom? Should you like peace and harmony in your home, a still life painting is a good option. It can function as a peaceful image that graces any interior.
