Lepo is a 1918 unspecified by Raffaello Gambogi, depicting Farmer, held at Finnish National Gallery.
This painting shows a man standing in a field of tall, dry plants. He’s wearing a dark hat, a striped shirt, and dark pants. His left hand rests on a wooden staff, while his right hand holds a pipe to his mouth. Behind him, a small village with light-colored buildings and a church tower sits under a pale sky. The artist paid close attention to the rough texture of the plants and the man’s worn clothes. The light hits the scene softly, making some parts glow while others stay shadowy. Look up impasto next to see how artists use thick paint like this.
