A simple farmer or labourer eats at the table. With a wooden spoon, he eagerly spoons white beans from a bowl. On the table are onions, bread, a plate of vegetable cake, a half-empty glass of wine and an earthenware jug decorated with bright stripes. The whole picture is simple and homely. The food, the man, his clothes, his coarse table manners and his sly gaze are all unappealing to the viewer.
Annibale Carracci (Bologna, 3 November 1560 - Rome, 15 July 1609) was an Italian painter and engraver. In Bologna, with his cousin Ludovico and brother Agostino, he opened the Eclectic School or the "School of Carracci". He was one of the founders of the art movement that became known as the Bolognese School.
Annibale Carracci's works belong to the Baroque, although there is interweaving with classicist elements.
