About the piece
Painted in 1894 by Demetrio Cosola, this masterwork of social realism depicts a rural community gathered for medical vaccinations. The scene is rich with human detail—from the focused physician to the nursing mothers—all rendered in a warm, earthy palette that emphasizes the quiet dignity of domestic and civic life.
