"The Wet-Nurse" by Pietro Longhi, an Italian painter who lived in the 18th century, depicts a dramatic scene of a woman fainting in the arms of her wet-nurse, while an elderly gentleman observes the situation from the shadows, likely a family member or a doctor. The scene captures the anxieties and everyday life of the Venetian aristocracy in the 18th century. The painting, part of the permanent collection of the Ca' Rezzonico museum in Venice, showcases Longhi's talent for capturing the details and emotions of everyday life, often infused with humor and social commentary.
