Description : Ninfe dei Boschi

Oil on cardboard. Signed lower right. The Cremonese artist Antonio Rizzi includes in his production several works that have the mythological nymphs as their subject. In particular we remember the "Nereids under the moon", a work dated 1906 and preserved in the Ala Ponzone Civic Museum in Cremona. The work proposed here instead depicts the Nymphs of the woods, girls riding naked on the backs of donkeys, coming out of the woods in a festive and playful procession. The work is influenced by the Liberty style, which Rizzi knew above all in his Roman period. The work is presented in a frame.
