About the piece
Created in 1883 by Silvestro Lega, a leading figure of the Italian Macchiaioli movement, this oil painting is a masterclass in capturing light and color. The composition focuses on the quiet industry of a woman at her loom, where her bright clothing and headscarf stand out against the deep, impressionistic greens of the surrounding trees. The work reflects the movement's focus on everyday life and the naturalistic 'macchia' or spots of color that define form through light.
