Oil On Canvas "neapolitan Festival" 19th Century

Oil on canvas "Neapolitan Festival" in its wooden and gilded stucco frame, 19th century period. This painting represents a Neapolitan party scene, the city of Naples is internationally renowned for its songs, its musicians and singers since antiquities, singing, music, partying are for the Neapolitans a way of life that cannot be denied nowadays. The scene represented here is a perfect illustration, in the center a couple of dancers, surrounded on their right by seated musicians, on their left by spectators seated near a fountain under trees. Note that this scene is part of everyday life since a man and his dog pass by as well as a water carrier (in the background on the right). On the other hand, this scene reveals in the background the bay of Naples cradled in a soft light under a sky with clouds tinged with pink, at the water's edge a few boats, a shepherd and his flock. In the foreground, musical instruments, jugs... help create the atmosphere of the party! This painting is of great pictorial quality, the faces are very expressive, the clothes are remarkably represented and detailed... All that is missing is the sound, to take us into the party!
Good condition, small restoration visible on the reverse, some alterations to the frame.
