An otherwise quotidian scene, a table set for a simple meal of soup, bread, fruit and a little wine, along with the company of a feline friend, is made unusual, becoming instead a study in volume and form. ⠀ .⠀ Painted in 1968, this work is true vintage Botero, revealing the early musings and bold risks taken by the artist that now define his immediately recognizable style.⠀ .⠀ It was with the subject of the still life that Botero first developed his signature style; an early breakthrough in the 1950s playing with the proportions of his painted objects became the catalyst for Botero’s lifelong obsession with volume and form. This treatment of his subjects, or ‘Boterismo’, is his trademark, one that has made him a household name and gained him international stardom.⠀ ⠀ Fernando Botero (b. 1932), 'Naturaleza muerta con sopa caliente', 1968.
