"I Mangiatori di Ricotta" (The Ricotta Eaters) is a 16th-century oil on canvas painting by the Italian artist Vincenzo Campi. Created around 1580, this work is renowned for its vivid depiction of a peasant scene, showcasing Campi's skill in genre painting—a style that portrays scenes of everyday life. The painting measures 56 cm by 67 cm and is currently housed in the Pinacoteca di Brera in Milan, Italy.

The composition of "I Mangiatori di Ricotta" is bustling with activity, featuring a group of peasants engaged in the hearty enjoyment of ricotta cheese. The scene is set outdoors, and the figures are depicted with a sense of realism and attention to detail that was characteristic of Campi's work. The painting is noted for its lively representation of the figures' expressions and movements, as well as the textural rendering of the food and the rustic setting.

Vincenzo Campi, born in Cremona around 1536 and active until his death in 1591, was part of a family of prominent artists. His work often included genre subjects, and he was known for infusing his paintings with a sense of humor and earthiness. "I Mangiatori di Ricotta" is considered one of his masterpieces and is a fine example of his ability to capture the essence of peasant life in the Lombardy region of Italy during the Renaissance.

The painting is significant for its contribution to the genre painting tradition and for providing insight into the social customs and dietary habits of rural Italian life in the 16th century. It also reflects the broader cultural and artistic trends of the time, as artists began to take an interest in the lives of ordinary people, moving away from the exclusive focus on religious and mythological subjects.

"I Mangiatori di Ricotta" has been analyzed by art historians for its composition, use of color, and its place within the context of Campi's oeuvre and the broader Italian Renaissance. It continues to be a subject of study for its artistic and historical value, offering a window into the past and the evolving styles of European art.
