EDITORS COMMENTS
Oxen and Wagon (Maremma)," a captivating etching by the renowned Italian artist Giovanni Fattori, dates back to the late 19th century. This evocative work of art transports us to the heart of rural Italy, specifically the Maremma region of Tuscany. The image, etched on buff wove paper laid down on buff wove paper chine colle, showcases a pair of oxen pulling a traditional bullock cart along a dusty country road. The oxen, with their powerful forms and determined expressions, embody the raw strength and endurance of working animals in the agricultural landscape. The scene is set against the backdrop of rolling hills and expansive fields, which stretch out towards the horizon. The artist's masterful use of the Macchiaioli style, characterized by its emphasis on naturalism and the representation of light and color in its most immediate and spontaneous form, brings the rustic beauty of the Maremma countryside to life. Fattori's "Oxen and Wagon (Maremma)" is a testament to the rich artistic heritage of Italy and the enduring tradition of rural life. It serves as a reminder of the importance of agriculture in shaping the Italian landscape and the vital role that working animals played in the transportation of goods and people. This print is a must-see for anyone interested in the history of art, agriculture, or the simple pleasures of rural life. The Art Institute of Chicago is fortunate to have this exceptional work in its permanent collection, where it continues to inspire and captivate visitors from around the world. Whether viewed in person or in reproduction, "Oxen and Wagon (Maremma)" is a timeless masterpiece that speaks to the enduring beauty and resilience of the natural world and the human spirit.
