EDITORS COMMENTS
Still Life, 1913" is a captivating oil on canvas painting by the renowned French artist, Roger de la Fresnaye. This masterpiece, created in the 1910s, is a prime example of the Cubist movement that swept through the art world during the early 20th century. The painting is currently housed in the National Gallery of Denmark, also known as Statens Museum for Kunst (SMK), in Copenhagen. The composition of the painting features a tabletop filled with everyday objects, including a book, a shaving mirror, a shaving brush, and a looking glass. The artist masterfully arranges these objects in a seemingly chaotic yet harmonious manner, challenging the traditional perspective of still life painting. The green color dominates the scene, with the tablecloth, the book cover, and the mirror reflecting various shades of this earthy hue. A closer look at the painting reveals the intricacies of Fresnaye's brushstrokes, which are visible in the textured representation of the tabletop and the reflections in the mirror. The mirror itself serves as a window into another world, reflecting not only the objects on the table but also the furniture and the surrounding environment. The painting invites the viewer to explore the relationship between the objects, their reflections, and the space around them. The inclusion of a book and a shaving mirror adds an intellectual and personal touch to the still life, making it a thought-provoking and visually engaging work of art. Fresnaye's "Still Life, 1913" is a testament to the artist's innovative approach to Cubism and his ability to transform the mundane into the extraordinary. This painting is a must-see for anyone interested in modern art, particularly the Cubist movement, and a valuable addition to Denmark's rich cultural heritage.
