Oil painting on canvas. Signed lower left. The title on the back on the frame. The Milanese painter Filippo Carcano, who was a pupil of Hayez at the Brera Academy, dedicated himself to the production of historical and historical-literary subjects especially at the beginning of his career, then moving on to genre scenes and scenes of social interest and then to landscape . Here he proposes the horseback portraits of two characters taken from the novel Marco Visconti by Tommaso Grossi, which tells of the impossible love between Bice del Balzo and Ottorino Visconti against the backdrop of fourteenth-century Lombardy, between Limonta, on Lake Como, Milan and the castle of Rosate. The painting is presented in a late 19th century gilded frame.
