Metaphysical painting is an Italian art movement, Pittura Metafisica was founded in 1917 by Carlo Carrà and Giorgio de Chirico in Ferrara. They aimed to depict an alternative reality which engaged most immediately with the unconscious mind. In this style of painting, an illogical reality seemed credible. Using a sort of alternative logic, Carrà and de Chirico juxtaposed various ordinary subjects - typically including starkly rendered buildings, trains, and mannequins.
