## Commentary

This scene is on the wall of the room with Rustic Scenes in the Foresteria of the Villa Valmarana. It represents a peasant woman with a basket of eggs in a Veneto landscape. This isolated image is true to life and recalls Titian&#39;s painting of an old woman egg seller seated at the foot of a flight of stepss who witnesses the &lt;a onclick=&#34;return OpenOther\(&#39;/html/t/tiziano/03\_1530s/5presen4.html&#39;\)&#34; href=&#34;/html/t/tiziano/03\_1530s/5presen4.html&#34;&gt;Presentation of the Virgin at the Temple.&lt;/a&gt;
