Painting, "The Water Carrier"
Item Description
Painting, oil on canvas. The work presents a landscape characterized by lush vegetation, with trees, bushes, and shrubs in various shades of green. Along the path, two figures are walking. A mother carries, balanced on her head, an amphora containing water, followed by her child, who extends his hand seeking support for the effort of the journey. The entire painting conveys, through light and colors, as well as the characters' attitude, all the summer heat of central Italy. The author has divided the canvas into two parts: on the right, bushes and trees are the main subjects, and in opposition, on the left, the figures are distinguished, struck by light and highlighted through this cleverness. In this way, the painter has made the work particular and innovative. The gaze is immediately captured by the sweet scene and then curiously moves across the canvas, enjoying the details.
The work is presented in a wood frame with a marble effect.
