Giuseppe Giardiello (1877 - 1920) - Ritiro della rete - Capri

Giuseppe Giardiello (1877-1920) - Fishermen in Capri.

Description:
Oil on canvas painting by the Neapolitan master Giuseppe Giardiello, a prominent painter of the Neapolitan naturalist school between the late nineteenth century and the early twentieth century.

The work depicts a scene of daily life typical of the Campanian coast: a group of fishermen engaged in the arduous retrieval of the nets (the "sciabica") on the shore, with the characteristic wooden boats in the background and Capri unmistakably on the horizon.

Giardiello stands out in this canvas for a vibrant and tactile brushstroke, capable of masterfully capturing the Mediterranean light. The reflections of the water in the foreground and the color rendering of the sky testify to his great ability to convey the marine atmosphere.
