Pauline Campanelli, née Eblé(1943–2001) was an American artist who specialized in photorealistic still life’s. Though her work did not often attract prestigious galleries or museums, only Andrew Wyeth sold more paintings while living than she did. Her top selling print, “Rose Berries” sold almost one million copies. In addition to painting, she wrote books on ancient pre-Christian rituals.

Pauline Eblé was born on January 25, 1943, in The Bronx, New York. At the age of 3 she contracted polio, spending a year in an irin lung and another year and a half in a hospital.

Campanelli's style was known as superrealism or photo realism and she was most known for her still life’s of ordinary objects found in nature like fossils, shells, bird's nests and the like. She was influenced by Puet Mondrian as well as naturalism and her belief in paganism. She was a meticulous painter, who strove to complete minute details accurately. Early in her career, she produced nearly twenty paintings per year, but after 1990, six per year was her average. Even so, she sold more paintings as a living artist than any painter except Andrew Wyeth and her top-selling print, Wild Rose Berries, sold almost one million copies.

In 1969, Eblé married fellow painter Dan Campanelli and they made their living from teaching art classes and selling paintings. less
