Still Life: Extravagance and Simplicity
| Dates | Tuesday 22 and Wednesday 23 October 2024 |
| Time | 18.00-20.00 BST |
| Location | Online (Zoom) |
| Speaker | Clare Ford-Wille |
Uncover the riches of the still life genre as we explore artworks in the Wallace Collection and beyond. We’ll learn how, from the 16th century, still life became a subject in its own right, appealing not only to Catholic, but also to newly emerging Protestant patrons. As new plants came to Europe following the voyages of discovery, still life developed in diversity and unsurpassed technical brilliance, particularly in the work of Dutch painters. We’ll look closely at a range of fascinating art objects, delving into the context and symbolism of still life elements in a variety of fascinating art objects.
