"Sosta Di Somarelli," also known as "Resting Donkeys," is a notable painting by the Italian artist Giovanni Fattori, a leading figure in the Macchiaioli movement. The Macchiaioli were a group of Italian painters active in Tuscany in the second half of the 19th century, who sought to break away from the academic conventions of the time and instead focused on capturing natural light and color through the use of "macchie," or patches of color. Fattori, born in Livorno in 1825, is celebrated for his realistic and evocative depictions of rural and military life, and "Sosta Di Somarelli" is a quintessential example of his work.

The painting portrays a tranquil scene of donkeys resting, likely in a rural setting, which reflects Fattori's deep connection to the Tuscan landscape and his interest in the everyday lives of common people and animals. The composition is marked by its simplicity and the artist's masterful use of light and shadow, which imbues the scene with a sense of calm and timelessness. The donkeys, rendered with meticulous attention to detail, are depicted in a moment of repose, highlighting Fattori's ability to capture the essence of his subjects with both sensitivity and precision.

"Sosta Di Somarelli" exemplifies the Macchiaioli's innovative approach to painting, which prefigured the techniques later adopted by the Impressionists in France. Fattori's work, including this painting, is characterized by a keen observation of nature and a commitment to portraying the truth of the world around him, free from the idealization that was prevalent in academic art of the period.

Today, Giovanni Fattori is regarded as one of Italy's most important 19th-century painters, and his works, including "Sosta Di Somarelli," continue to be studied and admired for their contribution to the development of modern art. The painting remains a testament to Fattori's skill and his enduring legacy within the canon of European art history.
