William Michael Harnett

William Michael Harnett was an American painter of the second half of the 19th century. He became known as a master of still life. William Harnett was famous for his pictures of deception with extremely accurate depictions of everyday objects, which the viewer often could not distinguish from real things.
William Harnett, unlike most of his colleagues, never sought fame and popularity, so he forever remained faithful to the still life genre he had chosen as a young artist. His biography is a typical example of a successful career of a self-taught artist without academic education.
Harnett's best masterpieces are now preserved in museums in the United States.
