Homesick for Naples is a 1898 oil by Bertha Worms, a Impressionism work, depicting Boy, held at Pinacoteca de São Paulo.
In the painting "Homesick for Naples," a young boy sits on a stone ledge, leaning against a brown box. He wears a white shirt and dark vest, with his right arm resting on the box and his left hand holding a small object. The boy's gaze is directed downward, and his posture conveys a sense of sadness or longing. The background of the painting features a stone wall with a hole, adding to the overall atmosphere of melancholy. The artist's use of muted colors and subtle lighting enhances the emotional impact of the scene.
