Like The Butcher Shop, Annibale Carracci's The Bean Eater does not take its theme from any specific literary or historical anecdote and has a popularesque style. It is a genre scene, meaning a direct observation from daily life.Here, Carracci's simple peasant, in his coarse (albeit clean) clothes and rustic straw hat, sits down to a simple meal of beans and onions.Social codes in Baroque Italy extended as far as to food. According to contemporary thinkers, foodstuffs like beans and onions, which are dark in color and grow low to the ground, were suitable only for similarly lowly consumers, like peasants.On the subject of beans, an Italian writer contemporary to Carracci stated "it should not be used except by those who labor hard. " Food suitable for the aristocracy was light in color, and grew far from the ground, paralleling their elevated, white virtue. Furthermore, it was believed that if a peasant should consume the type of foods intended for the aristocracy, he would fall terribly, terribly ill.Like Carracci's other early genre paintings, it is not known for whom or why The Bean Eater was painted. It can be presumed that the painting represents a painting exercise for Carracci's personal pleasure.
