About this artwork
Painted in 1935, Banquet in Silence is an oil painting on canvas by Marsden Hartley, the American Modernist painter, poet and essayist. The title points to a meal, and the work shows a banquet with fish on a platter. It is a still, contained subject, treated by an artist who had sharpened his approach to painting by studying Cubist artists in Paris and Berlin. Today the painting belongs to the collection of the Metropolitan Museum of Art.
On your wall: Its table-and-platter subject suits dining rooms and kitchens, and its modern character also sits well in a study or a calm, contemporary living space.
