"Popolana" is a painting by the Italian artist Vito D'Ancona (1825–1884), a prominent figure associated with the Macchiaioli movement, which emerged in Tuscany during the second half of the 19th century. The Macchiaioli were known for their innovative approach to painting, characterized by a focus on light and color, and a technique that emphasized quick, bold brushstrokes reminiscent of the later Impressionists.

D'Ancona, born in Pesaro and trained in Florence, was one of the central members of this group. His work "Popolana" reflects the Macchiaioli's interest in depicting contemporary life and the people of Italy with a sense of immediacy and realism. The term "popolana" refers to a woman of the people or a peasant woman, and in this context, it suggests that the subject of the painting is an ordinary Italian woman, possibly from the rural working class.

The painting is noted for its use of light and shadow, capturing the effects of natural light on the figure and her surroundings, which was a hallmark of the Macchiaioli style. D'Ancona's brushwork in "Popolana" is loose and expressive, allowing the viewer to sense the movement and the momentary quality of the scene depicted.

As a significant work within the oeuvre of Vito D'Ancona and the Macchiaioli movement, "Popolana" is an important example of the transition from the traditional academic painting of the early 19th century to the more spontaneous and impressionistic approaches that would dominate the end of the century. It is a testament to the artist's skill in capturing the essence of Italian life and the changing artistic tastes of the period.

The painting is held in various collections and has been exhibited in several retrospectives of the Macchiaioli's work, contributing to the understanding of this pivotal period in the history of Italian art.
