Gianluca Corona is a professional realist figurative painter. The detail in his works is so neat and clean, that they can easily be mistaken for photographs. When depicting food, his artwork whets appetites – see for yourself in the above photo gallery.

One of the most popular contemporary Italian still-life painters, Corona stands out for its sensual reinterpretation of the genre and his careful research of traditional techniques. His work, inspired by the great masters of the 16th and 17th centuries, offers a contemporary rereading of the classic genres of not only still life, but also portrait.
