Short Review
This watercolor by Luigi Ontani must be looked at carefully, as it is complex and particularly explanatory of the title in its details. First of all, the dark skin and curly hair denote an extra-European origin (oriundo). The mouth (boccadoro) of a bright red, the long fingers, with red-lacquered nails, wink at a certain sexual propensity. Around his neck he wears a chain with the image of a dog, a symbol of fidelity par excellence, which is as if to say that the boy is faithful in his love relationships.
