La cugina Argia

La cugina Argia (Cousin Argia) is an 1861 oil on card painting by Giovanni Fattori, now in the Gallery of Modern Art in Florence.[1] A label on the reverse is inscribed "Gio. Fattori alla sua cugina Argia. Anno 1861" (Giovanni Fattori to his dear cousin Argia. The year 1861),[2] but this may not be in the artist's own hand and no Argia is known in his family.[3]
