For the sake of time, Morandi's work was not accepted at the very beginning and was concluded to the Scuola Metafisica, till the very end, his painting talent was affirmed unanimously. Morandi's painting features are quite salient, modern art and classic art are integrated in an ingenious way, not only the occidental art tradition is absorbed, the oriental painting features are also included. He spend his whole life on the way of probing a painting style belongs to he himself, he tries to look for it form the Renaissance masters, and through his sustained accumulating and study. He has tried almost every style of painting, from the Cezanne's Cubism to the Scuola Metafisica, all could be seen in his work. Marandi's work gets so many coincidences with the traditional oriental painting, like the dispose of space, hue and chiaroscuro. We could call his work is a perfect blending of oriental and occidental art, but what is being respected by people is not only Morandi's excellent painting talent, but also his attitude toward art, which is never seek fame and wealth, being calm and cautious.
