EDITORS COMMENTS
Two Men Digging," a captivating etching on ivory laid paper by the renowned French artist Jean Francois Millet, dates back to the mid-19th century. This masterpiece, created between 1855 and 1856, is a testament to Millet's unwavering commitment to capturing the essence of rural life. The image transports us to the picturesque countryside of Barbizon, where two young men are seen working side by side, their faces etched with determination and focus. The men are shown in the midst of digging a ditch in the fertile farmland, their spades in hand, as they laboriously toil to irrigate the fields. The scene is a poignant metaphor for the unyielding spirit of the rural community, where the land and its people are intricately connected. Millet's masterful use of light and shadow adds depth and texture to the image, bringing the scene to life. This etching is a prime example of the Barbizon School, a artistic movement that celebrated the beauty and simplicity of rural life. Millet's work, with its strong sense of regionalism, has left an indelible mark on the art world and continues to inspire artists and art lovers alike. The Two Men Digging is a timeless piece that transcends the boundaries of art history and remains a cherished addition to the collections of esteemed institutions such as the Art Institute of Chicago.
