Famous still life paintings span centuries and artistic styles, from Campi’s trompe l’oeil to Cezanne’s modernist exploration of form. Notable examples include Snyders’ “The Fruit Seller,” Kalf’s “The Woman with the Pearls,” Chardin’s “Still Life with Bread and Cheese,” and Picasso’s “Guitar and Fruit Bowl.” These works showcase the genre’s ability to depict everyday objects with beauty, symbolism, and technical mastery.
