The Departure for Work, 1857

EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating and evocative artwork by Jean-Francois Millet that captures the essence of rural life in the mid-19th century. This stunning print showcases Millet's mastery of charcoal, conte crayon, and pastel on paper, bringing to life a scene filled with hardworking farmers and laborers. In this piece, we witness the break of dawn as men and women gather their strength to embark on another grueling day of work. The artist's realistic style beautifully portrays the weariness etched on their faces as they prepare to depart for their respective trades. A group of peasants can be seen trudging alongside a donkey-drawn cart loaded with tools and supplies. Millet's attention to detail allows us to immerse ourselves in this early morning moment. We can almost feel the crisp air and hear the faint sounds of nature awakening around them. The composition skillfully balances light and shadow, emphasizing both the hopefulness brought by a new day and the challenges that lie ahead. This artwork serves as an homage to those who tirelessly labored in rural communities during this era. It reminds us of their resilience, determination, and unwavering commitment to providing for themselves and their families. Displayed at The Art Institute of Chicago, "The Departure for Work" continues to captivate viewers with its timeless depiction of human perseverance amidst daily struggles.
