Futurist painter Alba Giuppone's painting depicts some of the activities that women engaged in during the war years. As was the case during the Great War, women during the conflict performed activities that in peacetime were usually the preserve of men, in addition to the usual occupations traditionally reserved for them. Oil on plywood depicting female figures in a working-class context.
