Metaphysical Interior with Biscuits.

Metaphysical Interior with Biscuits (1916) is a painting by the Italian pre-surrealist Giorgio de Chirico. It is one of the earliest editions in a series of works that extended late into de Chirico’s career.

Like the others in this series, this painting depicts a room that is cluttered with objects in a surreal arrangement. In this case the main focus is a panel on which is mounted several biscuits (crackers) that are arranged to resemble an abstract face. Behind this panel is a picture in an irregularly shaped frame. The image in the frame is an architectural scene in the style of de Chirico’s earlier work.
