Giorgio Morandi - Still life
The work of Giorgio Morandi has definitely won my heart over.
An Italian painter (1890-1964) he specialized in still life, painting mostly his large collection of bottles and containers in different combinations and in (slightly) different colors. He is known as one of the most important forerunners of Minimalism.
He also painted some landscapes and taught etching at the Accademia di Belle Arti, but his still life work really rings a bell with me. -

Giorgio Morandi, “Natura morta,” 1956, oil on canvas, 11 7/8 x 17 3/4 in.
