A child is suckling from her breast and she is entangled in the branches of a tree. Her head turned to the side, her back arched, the mother is struggling against the infant with all her might. In this barren mountain world, Giovanni Segantini is showing us the fate of women who surrender themselves to desire but refuse to accept motherhood. As punishment these mothers had to endure \u201cthe castigations of purgatory,\u201d as the painter himself put it when referring to his moralizing image. The women had no choice other than to accept their fate and thus find redemption. In the background these reformed mothers can be seen dancing with their children toward the mountains."},"medium":{"label":"Medium","value":"Oil on canvas"},"onview":{"label":"On View","value":"1"},"title":{"label":"Title","value":"The Evil Mothers"},"classification":{"label":"Genre","value":"Painting"},"primaryMedia":{"label":"PrimaryMedia","value":"/internal/media/dispatcher/3814/full"},"displayDate":{"label":"Date","value":"1894"},"id":{"label":"Id","value":"10195179"},"iiifManifest":{"value":"https://sammlungtest.belvedere.at/apis/iiif/presentation/v2/1-objects-6224/manifest"},"dimensions":{"label":"Dimensions","value":"105 × 200 cm"}}]}
