Description: | Signed: yes Description: A girl wearing white blouse and brown skirt, with bare feet, and hands held together behind her back, is depicted off centre to the right, and in profile. She looks over a high stone wall. A spaniel leans with its fore-paws against the wall. Behind are two donkeys. This scene is bathed in warm sunlight. The mountains rising behind the dense trees in the middle-ground under a bright sky, suggest an Italian landscape. The realistic style reveals Palizzi's mastery of the depiction of animals, contact with the live model and plein air painting. | Subjects: | figure; animal (donkey dog) | Source: | Vads | Creator: | Artist: Palizzi, Filippo (Italian painter, 1818-1899) Æ | Identifier: | http://www.vads.ac.uk/large.php?uid=8510... | Go to resource |
