Description of the work: A valuable oil painting on panel from the second half of the 19th century, depicting a moment of everyday life with a rural and popular flavor. The scene takes place in a humble, dimly lit interior, where the light from a single candle (visible on the right) shapes the figures with a marked chiaroscuro effect.
The main subject depicts an elderly man and a young man intent on tuning or repairing a bagpipe (or cornamusa), an instrument symbolic of pastoral tradition. In the background, a female figure sitting on a straw chair seems to be observing or waiting, completing the domestic narrative.
