Verified profile

The painting was purchased by Luigi Frugone from Mrs. Campeggi (a woman known in the art market), thanks to the mediation of Ferruccio Stefani, in 1925.The subject represented is very frequent in Fontanesi's production: an isolated and central figure in a landscape full of solicitations emotional, typical elements of that dialogue between the human figure and nature that the painter faced with happy results throughout his artistic career. Both the subject and the modes of representation recall the pictorial experiences of French landscape painters, such as Costantin Troyon, Camille Corot and Charles Daubigny, known by the artist through the art dealer Victor Branchard and during the stays in Paris that began with a visit to the Universal Exhibition of 1855.
