Giorgio de Chirico

De Chirico is responsible for the small movement of Pittura Metifisica. Though this movement is very small, it was very important for the Surrealists. His painting was inspired by Schopenhauer and Nietzsche. There is a lonely haunted quality of his paintings that I find quite interesting.
