About the piece
Painted around 1885, this work by Giovanni Fattori depicts an artillery patrol moving along a rugged landscape. Fattori, a leading figure of the Macchiaioli group, utilizes loose, confident brushstrokes to capture the interplay of light and shadow on the dusty road and the dark coats of the horses. The composition invites the viewer into the scene, following the soldiers as they traverse the countryside under an expansive, airy sky.
