The Beaneater is an oil on canvas painting made around 1583 to 1584 by the Italian Baroque painter Annibale Carracci, held in the Palazzo Colonna gallery in Rome. It shows a peasant eating white beans from a bowl with a wooden spoon at a table set with onions, bread, a vegetable pie, wine and a striped earthenware jug. The painting combines a still life of food with an intimate portrait-like study of an ordinary laborer, an approach that was unusual for Italian painting of its period.
