About the piece
This 1886 oil painting by Giovanni Fattori exemplifies the Macchiaioli style with its focus on light, shadow, and naturalistic rural life. Two white cattle stand in a shallow stream while a peasant woman watches from the grassy bank, set against a backdrop of slender, silver-barked trees and lush greenery that captures the quiet dignity of the Italian countryside.
