"Mal'aria 1850" is a painting by French artist Ernest Hébert (1817–1908), which depicts the impact of malaria on the rural populations of Italy during the mid-19th century. Hébert, known for his academic style and often sentimental subject matter, created this work to capture the social and health issues of his time. The painting is significant for its historical context, as malaria was a widespread and deadly disease in the marshy regions of Italy, particularly affecting the poor and working classes.

The artwork is characterized by its dramatic portrayal of suffering and despair, as Hébert illustrates the physical and emotional toll of the disease. The composition likely features afflicted individuals in a desolate landscape, emphasizing the helplessness and isolation felt by those impacted by the illness. The use of color, light, and shadow in the painting serves to enhance the somber mood and draw attention to the gravity of the situation.

"Mal'aria 1850" is an example of Hébert's engagement with social realism, a movement that sought to shine a light on the conditions of the working class and the underprivileged. Through his art, Hébert not only provided a visual record of the struggles faced by many during this period but also invoked empathy and awareness among his contemporaries.

The painting is part of Hébert's broader body of work, which includes both historical and religious subjects, as well as portraits and landscapes. His contributions to the art world during the 19th century were recognized by his appointment as director of the French Academy in Rome and his election to the Académie des Beaux-Arts.

"Mal'aria 1850" remains an important work within Hébert's oeuvre and continues to be studied for its artistic merit and its portrayal of a significant public health issue of the time. The painting is also a testament to the role of art in documenting and responding to the social concerns of an era.
