"The Betrothed" (Italian: "Gli Sposi Promessi") is a notable painting created in 1869 by the Italian artist Silvestro Lega, a prominent 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 were forerunners of the Impressionists and sought to break away from the academic conventions of their time by focusing on natural light and color.

Lega's "The Betrothed" is celebrated for its intimate portrayal of a young couple, capturing a moment of tender connection and emotional depth. The painting is characterized by its meticulous attention to detail, the subtle interplay of light and shadow, and the warm, earthy palette that Lega often employed. The work reflects Lega's interest in everyday life and his ability to convey the psychological nuances of his subjects.

The composition of "The Betrothed" is carefully balanced, with the figures positioned in a way that draws the viewer's eye to their expressions and gestures. The background, though understated, provides a sense of place and context, enhancing the narrative quality of the scene. Lega's brushwork is both precise and expressive, contributing to the overall sense of realism and immediacy.

"The Betrothed" is considered one of Lega's masterpieces and exemplifies the Macchiaioli's commitment to capturing the essence of contemporary life through direct observation and innovative techniques. The painting remains an important work in the history of Italian art, reflecting the broader cultural and artistic shifts of the 19th century. It continues to be studied and admired for its technical excellence and emotional resonance.
