"The Gathering of Silkworm Cocoons" is a painting by the Italian artist Giovanni Segantini, created in 1880. This work is an example of Segantini's early artistic period, which was characterized by a focus on social realism and the depiction of rural life. The painting portrays peasant women engaged in the labor-intensive process of collecting silkworm cocoons, a common agricultural practice in parts of Italy during the 19th century.

Measuring 27.5 x 39.5 cm, the artwork is executed in oil on canvas. It showcases Segantini's attention to detail and his ability to capture the textures and subtleties of the natural world, as well as the human condition within it. The composition is marked by a harmonious blend of the figures with their environment, reflecting the artist's deep connection to the land and the people who work it.

"The Gathering of Silkworm Cocoons" is significant for its representation of the theme of human labor and its place in the cycle of nature, a subject that Segantini would revisit throughout his career. The painting is also notable for its place within the broader context of the Italian Divisionist movement, which Segantini would later join, characterized by a distinctive style of chromatic separation and an interest in optical effects.

This work is held in a private collection and has been exhibited in various art galleries and museums, contributing to the understanding of Segantini's development as an artist and his influence on the Italian art scene of the late 19th century. The painting is a testament to Segantini's early exploration of the themes of nature, labor, and rural life, which would become hallmarks of his later, more mature works.
