About the piece

Created in 1870, this watercolor study by Finnish master Albert Edelfelt depicts an 'Italian Bandit' (Italialainen rosvo). The work demonstrates Edelfelt's early mastery of character and costume, utilizing a bold palette of reds and blues that stands out against the muted, atmospheric tones of the mountainous background.
