EDITORS COMMENTS
In this oil on canvas painting titled "Lunch in the Country" we are transported to a serene countryside setting, where time seems to stand still. Created by Italian artist Pietro Longhi or someone closely associated with him, this masterpiece measures 96x131 cm and is housed in the prestigious Museo del Settecento at Ca Rezzonico in Venice, Italy. The scene depicts a delightful picnic taking place amidst nature's splendor. A group of elegantly dressed men and women gather around a checkered blanket spread across lush green grass. The warm sunlight filters through the trees, casting dappled shadows on their faces as they enjoy their midday meal. Longhi's attention to detail is remarkable; every fold of fabric and blade of grass is meticulously rendered. The figures exude an air of refined leisure, engaged in animated conversation while savoring delectable snacks laid out before them. Their expressions reveal contentment and camaraderie as they escape from the hustle and bustle of city life into this idyllic retreat. This painting captures not only a moment frozen in time but also embodies the essence of tranquility and indulgence that comes with dining al fresco. It serves as a reminder for us all to take pause from our busy lives and appreciate the simple pleasures found within nature's embrace. Bridgeman Images has expertly preserved this timeless artwork for generations to come, allowing us to marvel at its beauty and immerse ourselves in its peaceful ambiance
