Still Life Paintings in the History of Art

Still life paintings depict inanimate objects, often arranged to explore themes of beauty, mortality, or abundance. They showcase artists' skills in composition, texture, and light – giving everyday objects new life. ‘Still life’ emerged as a distinct genre in the late 16th and early 17th centuries, particularly in the Netherlands and Spain, reflecting a growing interest in realism.

Between the 18th and 20th centuries, still life painting evolved from meticulous representations to more expressive, experimental forms. Artists like Cézanne explored light, texture, and composition, while movements such as Impressionism and Cubism further innovated the genre, emphasising abstract and dynamic interpretations of everyday objects. Henri Matisse played a significant role in the development of still life painting, particularly through his exploration of non-naturalistic colour, simplified forms, and dynamic compositions.

Dawn Beckles breathes new life into the still life genre through her jewel-toned hues and stylistic subversion of form. Beckles’ paints her objects as two-dimensional, with clean lines – uniting playful colours with classic compositions. In Is It Too Much (2023), the traditional subject of a vase and bowl of fruit is subverted – flowers appear pressed and the textured vase looks collaged.

Russian artist Viacheslav Rogin works with a range of still life subject matter – adding hypnotic depth and shadowing to more abstract interpretations. In Still Life #75 (2018), a collection of bottles is painted in muted colours, softened outlines and broad brushstrokes, immortalising the everyday objects with a brooding ambience.

For a different stylistic approach, discover the work of London-based artist Lilia Orlova-Holmes, renowned for her vivid, expressionist botanical still lifes. A small lemon tree in a blue pot (2023) is emblematic of the artist’s style – a refreshing, lively composition with vibrant colours and playful brushstrokes.
