EDITORS COMMENTS
This 19th-century watercolor print captures a small Neapolitan metier, showcasing the daily life of a saleswoman of corn grilles. The artist, Luisa Ricciarini, skillfully brings to life the bustling streets of Naples with her vibrant brushstrokes and attention to detail. In this scene, we see a hardworking woman immersed in her trade as she sells grilled corn to passersby. Her presence adds charm and character to the busy street scene, where commerce thrives. Dressed in traditional attire, she stands proudly behind her cart filled with delicious golden corn cobs. The image not only highlights the laborious nature of street trading but also provides insight into the rich culinary culture of Naples during that era. Corn grilles were undoubtedly a popular snack among locals and visitors alike. As we admire this artwork housed at Museo Nazionale di San Martino in Naples, we are transported back in time to witness an old trade that has since evolved or disappeared entirely. It serves as a reminder of how much our society has changed while honoring those who worked tirelessly to make ends meet. Luisa Ricciarini's masterpiece is an ode to women at work and celebrates their contribution within the Campania region's economic fabric. Through this painting, we gain appreciation for both artistry and history intertwined seamlessly on canvas.
