Famous Still Life Paintings in Conservapedia


The term "still life" is used to describe an inanimate painting of subjects like: flowers (bouquet), vases, jars, fruits, bottles, shells, dead animals, glasses, jewelery, objets d'art, jewelry boxes, opera glasses, gloves, books, familiar objects, knifes, etc. While still life painting can be traced back to the ancient Egyptians, it was only with the Dutch painters of the 17th century that it came into its own as a painting genre. [1]

Raphaelle Peale (1774-1825), son of Charles Willson Peale, was America's first professional still-life painter. [2] Early American still-life painters also included John Johnston (ca. 1753 - 1818), Charles Bird King (1785 – 1862), and John F. Francis (1808 – 1886).
