Publisher's Synopsis
In the spring of 2015, the photographer Joel Meyerowitz sat at the work table in Giorgio Morandi's Bologna home, in the exact spot where the painter sat for over 40 years making his quiet, sublime still lifes. Here Meyerowitz looked at, touched, studied, and connected with the more than 250 objects that Morandi painted. Using only the warm natural light in the room, he photographed Morandi's objects. In the photographs, each object sits on Morandi's table.
