Painting I Butteri
Depictions on Canvas of Italy’s Cowboys
(This is more a note to myself than a full-fledged blog post.)
The poster for this year’s “Cowboy Poetry Gathering” features Giuseppe Raggio’s 1864 painting “Al Fontanile” (The Water Tank). Raggio (1823-1916), along with Giovanni Fattori, were two Italian visual artists working in the second-half of the nineteenth century who were fascinated with i butteri.
