Have you seen the latest Anthropologie catalog? It's stunning. They have taken a completely new approach, including designing a beautiful photographic page index. The products are shown in gorgeous still lifes that, as a geeky art historian, I can say reference both Dutch and Spanish still life painting from the seventeenth century. The brilliance of this graphic strategy is that the luminosity and richness of these painting traditions perfectly suits the Anthropologie identity.
See examples of Dutch still life here, a great comparison of these images to Spanish still life here, and the Anthropologie website here.
