books0977: Good Tidings. Eugenio Zampighi (Italian, 1859-1944). Oil on canvas. Probably done in the early 1900s. Zampighi loved to depict images of peasant life. He made them very jovial. Interior scenes of happy families, and Good Tidings is a fine example. A father and daughter share a good newspaper story. The hallmark of these genre paintings was getting the textures of the elements. -- source link
