traditional paint


Explanation:
Wikipedia
Costumbrismo refers to the literary or pictorial interpretation of local everyday life, mannerisms, and customs, primarily in the Hispanic scene. The view may be simplified and romanticized. Originating in Spain in the 19th century it expanded to America and set roots in Central and South America incorporating indigenous elements.

Explanation:
Siento disentir pero no es originaria de España. Ya Brueghel, por ejemplo, da cuenta de este género. (Por cierto, Genre painting, para los iniciados, no se relaciona en absoluto con obras sobre la mujer).

Example sentence(s):
  • The Dictionary of Art and Artists defines it as a type of painting that denotes "the life of ordinary people" and dates it from the works of Dutch artists in the 17th Century.
