Catalogue Note

L'opera è accompagnata da autentica su fotografia rilasciata da Enrico Piceni nel 1985.
" [...] L'operetta è molto interessante perchè vediamo il Maestro tornare ai temi cari alla sua pittura giovanile [...], ma tornarvi dopo aver visto [...] a Parigi molta pittura soprattutto [...] Camille Corot. La tecnica raffinata e la finezza dei toni induce a datare il dipinto verso il 1871-72 quando De Nittis fece un lungo soggiorno in Italia [...] ". E. Piceni 1985
