" Venetian Salesgirl" by Giuseppe Barison is a famous painting depicting a salesgirl. He was born in Trieste to a family of modest means. His father was a tailor. Barison found a patron in the aristocratic Anna De Rin, who placed him in apprenticeship with the painter Karl Emil Haase in Trieste, and then enrolled him in the Academy of Fine Arts in Vienna. In 1872, Barison began to take lessons from the Nazarene painters Karl von Blaas and Eduard Von Engerth, and also took courses in art history from August Eisenmenger. Subjects of his paintings in the early century include horses rendered with extreme care and precision in the painting Old Song (Municipality of Trieste). The First World War exiled Barison to the house of Roberto Amadi in Pegli, Liguria where he stayed from 1915 to 1918, and continued painting land- and sea-scrapes.
