Giuseppe Arcimboldo (1527 – July 11, 1593) was an Italian painter famous for creating fantastical portrait heads completely out of objects such as books, fish, flowers, fruits, and vegetables. In another sense, his painting of these objects were arranged on the canvas in such a way that the objects as a whole resembled the likeness of a portrait subject. Learn more »
