EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Sheepshearing Beneath Tree ca 1854" transports us back to a simpler time, capturing the essence of rural life in the mid-19th century. Created by Jean Francois Millet, a renowned French artist from the Barbizon school, this conte crayon drawing showcases his exceptional talent and attention to detail. The scene unfolds beneath the shade of a majestic tree, where hardworking farmers are engaged in the timeless tradition of sheep shearing. The composition exudes tranquility as we witness their laborious efforts amidst nature's beauty. Millet's masterful use of conté crayon brings depth and texture to each stroke, while heightened pen and brown ink add definition and contrast. The artist skillfully captures every nuance - from the expressions on the faces of both humans and animals to the meticulous rendering of their clothing. We can almost feel the warmth emanating from their bodies as they work diligently under dappled sunlight. Measuring 11 5/8 x 8 7/8 inches (295 x 225 cm), this exquisite piece is rendered on wove paper with white gouache accents that enhance its visual impact. It serves as a testament to Millet's ability to capture not only physical likeness but also evoke emotions through his art. As we gaze upon this remarkable print from Artokoloro's Liszt Collection, we are transported back in time, reminded of our connection with nature and inspired by those who labored before us
