AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

"La lettura" by Fabio Fabbi (1861-1946) is an oil painting on canvas measuring 45x30 cm, with a frame of 63 x 48 cm. It is signed at the bottom left.
The artwork is listed in the catalog of a major auction house, as shown in the attached photo.
The painting depicts a refined interior scene portraying a young woman caught in a moment of reading, immersed in a cozy and bourgeois atmosphere. The artist pays great attention to detail: from the carved wooden furniture to the oriental rug on the floor, up to the delicate play of light that shapes the female figure and her elegant blue dress.
The work is part of Fabio Fabbi's more intimate production, who is mainly known for his orientalist paintings but also as the author of numerous interior scenes and female portraits, characterized by deep narrative sensitivity.
The composition is balanced and harmonious, with a focused perspective that guides the viewer's gaze toward the absorbed face of the protagonist. The scene takes place in a richly furnished setting that reflects the decorative taste of late 19th-century bourgeoisie.
Careful packaging and fast shipping are guaranteed. Pickup is welcome. The item is located in Milan.
