ABOUT THE PAINTING
Throughout the nineteenth century French artists painted Italian peasants, representing them as the carefree and unfettered inhabitants of an idyllic countryside. One of Bonnat's last genre pieces before he turned exclusively to portraiture, the present picture conforms to this convention. Although Bonnat travelled to Italy in the late 1850s, the painting is only loosely based on direct observation. Since it is said to have been painted to the order of Catharine Lorillard Wolfe, she may have suggested the subject.
