About Giorgio Morandi

Giorgio Morandi (July 20, 1890 – June 18, 1964) was an Italian painter who specialized in arranged still life paintings. His paintings are noted for their tonal subtlety in depicting apparently simple subjects, which were limited mainly to vases, bottles, bowls, flowers and landscapes.
