Little Beggar and Woman Spinning, (oil on canvas)

All. Whole figure of a girl wrapped up in a heavy and worn dress and a spinner sitting on a stone base/plinth dressed with worn out clothes and a light blue/azure apron visibly torn. The little girl seems to claim her meal showing an empty bowl, the young woman, whose face is wrapped up in a large white handkerchief, gives a tired look at the spectator, keeps the winder under her left arm and grasps the spindle with her right hand. In the background are houses, a square with few passersby, a church with a late baroque facade and a bell-tower Creator: Ceruti Giacomo know as Pitocchetto Location: Private collection
