Dutch Baroque Still Life
Hi everyone,
Today I have a set of six three tile paintings called "Dutch Baroque Still Life".
The hierarchy that had developed established that history and religious painting were considered the highest style of painting, while portraiture, scenes of everyday life, animal paintings, landscapes and still life were considered minor forms of art.
These “minor” forms of art were executed by highly talented artists, using the same sophisticated techniques as those used in the more highly regarded fields of history and religious painting. Artists who chose to create still life paintings carefully selected, studied, grouped, and depicted the objects in their works in order to present to their viewer highly realistic images. Still life painting was highly popular among members of all social classes and were often purchased at extremely high prices.
During the Baroque period, masters of still life from Italy, France, Flanders, Holland and Spain painted still life scenes of fruit, flower pieces, musical instruments, fish and game, and vessels used in the household. These objects were painted with the utmost realism but with all the dedication and seriousness that had once been reserved for the human form.
This is base game compatible.
As always I hope you enjoy!

The tradition of still life painting has been around since antiquity, and example of this form of paintings can be found in almost every culture. The popularity of still life is immense, making it very hard to understand why many through out the history of art have excluded it from the category of high arts.

Your work is beautiful and I'd love these in my game but for some reason I can't download them. When I click the download button all I get is a load of unreadable text.
Hi Ivyrose.....it looks like you are using Internet Explorer (I use Chrome so I don't have this issue). There have been other people with this issue also. Make sure you are up to date on your Windows Updates, that will fix the problem.
