Painting was done back in 1871. I’m guessing that it was named by the artist. The woman is gathering firewood. If the title was used as a premise for a modern painting the result would probably be different.

During Corot’s time, a request to throw another faggot on the fire would be understood to mean, put more wood on the fire. These days that same statement would be considered hate speech. Up is down, bad is good.
