Popular scene whose aesthetic and thematic presents an inspiration of the painting of Baldomero Romero Ressendi.
The new painting of customs is born as a way of interpreting a growing feeling of national conscience, now present in the middle class while it advanced towards the social hegemony. To a certain extent, the painters' concern was to deepen the vision of their country through a language, that of painting, that everyone could understand, thus helping the common people to understand the nature and meaning of their nationality, especially as it had manifested itself in the recent past, still alive in the memory of the elders.
