"The Watercarrier" is a painting by the Italian-Austrian artist Eugene de Blaas (also known as Eugenio de Blaas or Eugen von Blaas), who was known for his genre paintings depicting Venetian life. Born on July 24, 1843, in Albano, near Rome, to Austrian parents, de Blaas was a prominent figure in 19th-century Italian art, particularly during the period of the Venetian school.

This particular work, "The Watercarrier," is characteristic of de Blaas's style, which often featured Venetian beauties and daily life scenes with a focus on capturing the light, color, and atmosphere of Venice. The painting portrays a young woman, presumably a local Venetian, engaged in the humble task of carrying water. De Blaas's attention to detail is evident in the depiction of the woman's attire, the play of light on her face and clothing, and the realistic representation of the water vessels.

While the exact date of creation for "The Watercarrier" is not well-documented, Eugene de Blaas's active period as an artist spanned from the mid-19th century to the early 20th century, and his works are typically dated within this timeframe. The painting is an example of the artist's skill in portraying the simple elegance of everyday activities, a theme that resonated with both his contemporaries and modern audiences.

"The Watercarrier" reflects de Blaas's academic training and his mastery of the techniques of the time. He studied under his father, Karl de Blaas, who was also a painter, and later at the Academy of Fine Arts in Venice. Eugene de Blaas's works were exhibited internationally, and he received considerable acclaim during his lifetime.

Today, "The Watercarrier" is appreciated for its historical and artistic value, providing insight into the culture and society of Venice during the artist's lifetime. The painting is part of de Blaas's larger body of work that continues to be studied and admired for its contribution to the genre of Venetian scenes and its place in the broader context of 19th-century European art.
