Sul dipinto
Jules Cornilliet (1830-1886) was a pupil of the painters Ary Scheffer (1795-1858) and Horace Vernet (1789-1863) in Paris. He painted history scenes in the troubadour style and genre paintings sometimes inspired by Orientalist movement. He made his Salon debut in 1857.
This painting is a fine example of genre paintings which developed in the second half of the 19th-century, inspired by the Realist movement emerged in France in the 1840s, which aroused a new interest in rural subject. It shows a group of women at a well wearing typical dresses and headgears from Brittany. This luminous albeit sketchy manner achieved a great success with both French and British patrons.
