Guiseppe Archimboldo - Portraits

Today we are learning about the artist Guiseppe Archimboldo.

He is famous for painting portraits of people using different types of fruit, vegetables, meat and fish.

He would pick food that would have a connection to whatever he was painting. For example if it was Autumn, he would use fruits and vegetables that grow in that season.

Find out more about him by watching the video:

Let's take a look at some of his artwork.

With adult permission, use fruits and vegetables you have at home to make a portrait of yourself.
