Willem Kalf (Dutch, 16191693) Still Life with
Fruit, Glassware, and a Wan-li Bowl 1659
Dutch still life masters such as Willem Kalf
pioneered the idea of 'genre' images - still
lifes.                    These images expressed
a calm, quiet, stillness.          The artists
of this era were interested in how light reflects
off different surfaces, dull surfaces were
contrasted skillfully against the sheen of silver
and crystal, the matte against the
luminous   The style of Kalf was highly
realisitic, the subject matter consisted everyday
objects.   www.cap.nsw.edu.au

Vincent Van Gogh Still Life Vase with Irises 1890 
The artist has captured, in this image, the
powerful force of living things. An important
feature of Irises is the expressive use of paint,
colour and line that capture the energy and power
of nature.                  Swirling thick and
expressive paint is a feature of the work and
style of VanGogh.   Rather than representing the
world as we "see" it with our eyes Van Gogh
depicted life around him as he felt  it  -
through colour and texture.
