Collection: Vanitas

The DABBITY Vanitas collection is an homage to a genre of still life images which reflect upon the ethereal and the fleeting, including the ultimate passing of life itself. Popular from the 17th century among the Dutch Masters, Vanitas is filled with poignancy, nuance and symbolism. Extinguished candle flames and floating bubbles depict the fleetingness of life itself. Items portraying material wealth, rich harvests and treasured, worldly pleasures, themselves all transient. Although modernity and material excess is de rigueur, these specially commissioned digitally captured images offer each viewer a fresh opportunity to consider the ultimate certainty and destiny before us all. The subdued lighting and restrained colour palette reflect their sense of sobriety and gravitas. Room visualisations not to scale. Click product thumbnails for size options.
