Harvesters Resting by Jean-François Millet

$48.50 – $655.00

As a representative example of Millet’s mature work, Harvesters Resting captures the spirit of his Barbizon paintings. It is one of several compositions he painted on this theme over the course of his career, and was created in 1853, the same year that eleven other works were exhibited at the Paris Salon. The painting was a huge success and gained Millet both fame and fortune due to its popularity with audiences.
