About the Item

Oil on Canvas. Unsigned, but on the back is a dedication "To Mrs. Clelia Mazzioli, with esteem Gaetano Bellei January 23, 1909." The large scene, set inside a popular kitchen, features a woman reading cards to two girls, who ask for explanations by pointing to the figures that appear and appear to compare them with a text resting on a chair. The work is reminiscent of Gaetano Bellei's painting because of the strong realism with which the painter painted mainly scenes of peasant daily life; it is considered a master of the depiction of human affections and human reactions and feelings. The painting has slight color falls. It is offered in a styled frame.
