Wisdom and Sorrow of Vanitas Still Lifes. Style of Fine Art - "Vanitas"
(multilingual subtitles) Strange and Attractive Still Lifes. “Vanitas” is an amazing direction of painting, which simply cannot be ignored. This genre is also called "Vanity of Vanities". Such an unusual name comes from the Latin adjective "Vanus", which means "empty", "emptiness", "futility" or "worthlessness". The traditional Christian view is that earthly goods and aspirations are transient and useless.
In addition, what awaits all people at the end of their lives? It is decay, oblivion and emptiness. “Vanitas” style - reminds us of the frailty of human life, the futility of all things and the senselessness of collecting material wealth by a person. We imagine the paintings of the “Vanitas” genre in our imagination based on the still lifes of Dutch artists of the golden age of Dutch painting. However, “Vanitas” is not only still lifes. Large allegorical canvases and paintings on mythological and biblical subjects were also created.
