Description : Bimbe al lavoro

Oil painting on canvas. Signed lower left. The Veronese artist proposes an outdoor scene, in the farmyard in front of the farmhouse: three girls, seated on the ground, are intent on collecting the grains of wheat that have remained attached to the straw: raising their gaze, serious and contrite, to observe the spectator of their work. The brightness of the scene stands out, coming from the right, where the sun's rays filter through and reverberate on the colorful dresses of the girls, while on the left two tall plants provide shade. The artist uses a quick brushstroke, with a light and rapid touch, characteristic of an plein air painting, or live painting, which spread in the first half of the twentieth century. The work is presented in a frame from the early 1900s.
