Giorgio de Chirico (1888 – 1978 ) painter and sculptor, Italian born of Italian parents in Greece. De Chirico's paintings made between 1909 and 1914 are known as the metaphysical period . The images of his work evoke dark and overwhelming environments. Early in this period, his work was inspired by cityscapes, Mediterranean cities, but gradually, the painter's attention shifted to studies of objects, crammed quarters, sometimes inhabited by mannequins. De Chirico is considered one of the greatest influences of the surrealist movement.
