Signature and location (mandello) at the bottom left. At the back further signature, date and the title for extensive. Riccardo Pellegrini, a Milanese painter, was a pupil of Domenico Morelli and was formed in the climate of romanticism. He was a landscapeist and genre painter, but he also realized valuable death, with a bright colors and precise and realistic design. His landscape production drew on the various places that he visited and lived, in Italy and abroad, especially in Spain and France. In this landscape, Pellegrini offers a glimpse of the mountain that dominates the location on the banks of Lake Como: a barren mountain and stripped, albeit inhabited, with the hut on the cucuzzolo and a female figurine that fills the buckets at the water stream that flows between the rocks; The colors are those of the winter brumes, divided almost transversely between the gray-blue of the upper part, with clouds full of rain that overlook the peaks on the other side of the lake (which can be understood, without seeing each other), and the green-brown of the Land that occupies the lower half, with the branches of the bare trees prostheses to connect the two half. The quiet of the mountains, title of the work, well transpires and pervades the soul of the observer. The painting is presented in a coeval frame.
