2023Still Life Artworks - Stamp Booklet

On October 9, 2023, La Poste issued a booklet of 12 postage stamps, illustrated with still lifes.

Flowers, fruits, vegetables, objects have always inspired artists. A pictorial genre in its own right, “still life” plays on form and light and sublimates reality.

Van Gogh, Renoir, Monet, Cézanne and other less famous artists devoted themselves to this pictorial genre in its own right, popular with the public. Featuring flowers, fruits, vegetables or everyday objects, they have created paintings where shapes, colors, play of light and symbolism give life and meaning to reality.
