Short Review
In this work Luigi Ontani paints a young man standing in a rice field with his hands clasped above his head. His gaze is lost in the distance and the graceful features of the figure constitute a hymn (this is the reason for the title) to the figure of the "mondine", that is, the girls who collected rice and who in common perception were beautiful.
