Paintings: The Stuff of Life

These are notes to accompany 5 paintings from a touring exhibition: "The Four Elements: Earth", by Joachim Beuckelaer (1569), "Van Gogh's Chair" (1888), "Still Life with Drinking Horn", by Willem Kalf (1653), "My neighbour's House", by Frederick Elwell (1929), and "Still Life (Marine Set)" by Edward Wadsworth (1936). Students should compare them and find out what they have in common. We can practice vocabulary naming food and objects. We may try to read a still life as a portrait, describing somebody's personality through their favourite objects. We can read the historical notes about the painters and their works.
