EDITORS COMMENTS
This 19th-century painting, titled "Travelling seller of mozzarellas" takes us back in time to the bustling streets of Naples, Italy. The artist behind this masterpiece remains unknown, but their skillful brushstrokes bring to life a vivid scene filled with daily life and commerce. In the heart of this street scene stands a hardworking merchant, carrying on his shoulders a wooden instrument that holds an array of fresh mozzarella cheese. With determination etched on his face, he navigates through the busy market, offering his delectable wares to passersby. The painting beautifully captures the essence of Italian culture and tradition. The vibrant colors and attention to detail allow us to imagine the sounds and smells that would have surrounded this travelling seller. We can almost taste the creamy texture of the mozzarella as it is carefully weighed on an old-fashioned balance scale. This artwork not only showcases the importance of food in Italian society but also highlights themes such as negotiation, labor, and human connection. It reminds us that even centuries ago, people relied on their entrepreneurial spirit and hard work to make a living. Displayed at Museo Nazionale di San Martino & Certosa in Naples today, this anonymous painting by Luisa Ricciarini serves as a timeless reminder of our shared history and cultural heritage.
