"L'acquaiola" is an oil painting by the Austrian-Italian genre painter Eugene de Blaas (1843–1932), also known as Eugenio de Blaas or Eugen von Blaas. This work is one of de Blaas's many depictions of Venetian life, showcasing his fascination with the everyday activities and the vibrant culture of the city. The title "L'acquaiola" translates from Italian to "The Water Carrier," and the painting portrays a young Venetian woman in the act of drawing water, a common chore during the period.

Eugene de Blaas was born into an artistic family and received his training from his father, Karl von Blaas, who was a historical painter. Eugene, however, found his niche in painting the life and people of Venice, where he lived for most of his career. His works are characterized by their rich detail, vivid color, and the romantic portrayal of his subjects. "L'acquaiola" exemplifies de Blaas's skill in capturing the play of light on water and fabric, as well as his ability to convey the beauty and grace of his female subjects.

The painting is notable for its meticulous attention to the textures of the woman's clothing and the reflective properties of the water she collects. De Blaas's use of light enhances the sense of depth and realism in the composition. The subject's pose and expression are rendered with a sensitivity that invites viewers to ponder her thoughts and circumstances, making "L'acquaiola" a fine example of de Blaas's portraiture and genre work.

"L'acquaiola" is appreciated for its aesthetic qualities and its contribution to the genre of Venetian scene painting. It continues to be studied for its cultural and historical significance, as well as its technical mastery. The painting is a testament to Eugene de Blaas's enduring legacy as an artist who captured the essence of 19th-century Venetian society with elegance and charm.
