Collector's Focus: Culinary Arts

April 2026 Issue Special Feature

From lavish feasts to peasant fare, painting culinary tableaus is a tradition that stretches back to antiquity. The subject matter became popularized in 16th century Europe, a genre defined by iconic works like Caravaggio’s Basket of Fruit, van Gogh’s The Potato Eaters, Chardin’s The Prayer Before Meal, and more recently Francis Bacon’s Figure with Meat and Andy Warhol’s Campbell Soup cans. Today, contemporary artists carry the torch, painting everything from traditional still life spreads of nature’s bounty to hyper-realistic portrayals of donuts, cocktails and burgers with fries. Don’t miss this opportunity to showcase your edible delights in this special section that will satisfy the appetites of collectors worldwide. Artwork by Peter Anton.
