"Returning in the Rain," Giulio da Vicchio.

The painting depicts a rural scene characterized by the return of a flock in the rain. In the foreground, a central figure with a green umbrella guides the sheep along a wet road, rendered with dense brushstrokes that capture the reflections of water and the texture of the ground. Rustic stone buildings and thatch-covered structures stand out in the background, defining a traditional country setting. The atmosphere is dominated by a cloudy, rain-laden sky, where color variations between grays, blues and greens lend depth and drama to the composition. The textural rendering, combined with the choice of muted colors and attention to architectural and naturalistic details, testifies to a solid technical mastery and a focus on everyday life and its atmospheric conditions.
