Painting Description
"In the Rice Fields" (Italian: "Nelle risaie") is a notable painting by the Italian Divisionist painter Angelo Morbelli. Created in 1885-1886, the artwork is a prime example of the Divisionist technique, which involves the separation of colors into individual dots or patches that interact optically. This painting is part of a series by Morbelli that focuses on the theme of rice workers in the Piedmont region of Italy.
The painting depicts the labor-intensive work of female rice weeders, known as mondine, who were often subjected to harsh working conditions. Morbelli's interest in social realism is evident in this piece, as he highlights the plight of the working class during the industrialization of Italy. The artist's use of light and color reflects the influence of the scientific theories of color and optics that were popular among Divisionist painters, who were inspired by the Neo-Impressionist movement.
Measuring 52 x 92 cm, "In the Rice Fields" is housed in the Galleria d'Arte Moderna in Milan. The painting is celebrated for its technical mastery and poignant social commentary, capturing a moment of Italian history through the lens of Divisionism. Morbelli's work is often compared to that of his contemporaries, such as Giovanni Segantini and Gaetano Previati, who also explored similar themes and techniques.
"In the Rice Fields" has been exhibited in various art exhibitions and has been analyzed in art historical texts, contributing to the understanding of the Divisionist movement and its role in the evolution of modern art. Morbelli's dedication to portraying the everyday struggles of the lower classes has cemented this painting as an important work in the canon of Italian art history.
