L'Aspetta. She is waiting for him 1878

"L'Aspetta. She is waiting for him" is an 1878 oil painting by Danish artist Elisabeth Jerichau Baumann (1818-1881). The painting depicts two women, one older and one younger, seated on a stone ledge in a garden setting. The older woman is dressed in a white blouse, a yellow shawl, and a red necklace. She gazes intently at the viewer, while the younger woman looks away dreamily. The painting is currently housed in the SMK - Statens Museum for Kunst in Denmark. It is a beautiful example of the Romantic movement, with its focus on emotion, nature, and the beauty of the human form.
