"Give Us This Day Our Daily Bread" is an 1868 painting by Italian artist Alessandro Magnasco, commonly known as il Lissandrino. The artwork is a vivid representation of the daily struggle for sustenance and the invocation of divine providence, as suggested by the title, which is a direct reference to the Lord's Prayer. Magnasco's work is characterized by his distinctive brushwork and use of chiaroscuro, which imbues his paintings with a sense of movement and emotional depth.

In this painting, Magnasco likely depicts a scene of peasants or beggars gathered in prayer or in the act of receiving bread, which serves as both a literal and symbolic element within the composition. The work reflects the social and religious context of the time, highlighting themes of poverty, charity, and faith. Magnasco's choice of subject matter often gravitated towards the marginalized sectors of society, and "Give Us This Day Our Daily Bread" is a poignant example of his engagement with these themes.

While the painting is a testament to Magnasco's skill and thematic concerns, it also contributes to the broader narrative of Italian art in the late 18th century, a period marked by a transition from the Baroque to Rococo styles and eventually towards Neoclassicism. Magnasco's work, with its emotive force and dynamic execution, occupies a unique place within this artistic milieu, bridging elements of the Baroque's dramatic intensity with the emerging sensibilities of his time.

"Give Us This Day Our Daily Bread" remains an important work for understanding both Magnasco's oeuvre and the socio-cultural landscape of Italy during the period in which it was created. The painting is held in high regard for its artistic merit and as a historical document that provides insight into the era's prevailing attitudes towards faith, society, and the daily lives of the common people.
