Description
Laundress of Naples is an original watercolor drawing on paper realized by Michela De Vito, Naples, in the first half of 19th Century. Titled on the lower center. Included a Passepartout: 49 x 34 cm Good conditions, except for some foxing and stain on the lower which does not affect the image. Michela De Vito became quite a famous artist. She was maybe the daughter or sister it is not clear, of Camillo de Vito, a reknown painter of guaches depicting views and scenes from everyday life. She worked in Naples at the beginning of the XIX century; sometimes she is mistaken with Michele de Vito. ”A refined painter, very skilled when it came to drawings, she had the characteristic to make her subejct more gentle, compared to her male collegues”; this is how De Rosa and Trastulli describe this artist. This gentleness is quite evident in her figures and in their clothes.
