More about this artwork
"Still Life With Chianti Bottle And Celery" by Max Beckmann is a vibrant and dynamic painting that captures the essence of a tabletop arrangement in an expressive, almost abstract style. Featuring a riot of colors and bold brushstrokes, Beckmann arranges everyday objects to create a composition that is visually engaging and rich with texture.In the painting, a bottle of Chianti, characterized by its tall stature and what appears to be a label, takes a central position, slightly to the left. Accompanying the bottle is a stalk of celery, vividly rendered in green and pink hues, which lies draped across the center of the canvas, intertwining with other elements. Beckmann uses sharp contrasts and deep shadows to emphasize the forms and to inject a sense of depth.The scene also includes a woven basket, a black pot, a glass or vase, and what might be a plate or a flat container. To the right, you can see a tall glass filled with what appears to be either a red substance or reflecting a red surface.

Actors, cabaret singers, heroes and thugs in a harsh postwar urban life by German artist Max Beckmann (1884-1950). His paintings show boldness, lust, and pain through delineated figures. The Nazi rule forced Beckmann to resign as an art professor and declared his artworks as degenerate. He later left for America where he lived in exile, yet remained active as an artist.
