EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the Liszt Collection transports us back to the year 1855, capturing a timeless scene of rural life. In this etching printed in rich brown black ink, we witness a hardworking peasant pushing a wheelbarrow through the countryside. The artist behind this masterpiece is none other than Jean Francois Millet, a renowned French painter known for his realistic portrayals of everyday life. The second state of this etching showcases Millet's attention to detail and his ability to capture the essence of labor and simplicity. The use of chine coll technique adds depth and texture to the plate, enhancing our visual experience as we delve into this remarkable artwork. Measuring at 6 1/2 x 5 1/4 inches (165 x 133 cm), this print allows us to appreciate every stroke and line that Millet carefully crafted with his skilled hand. As one of the leading figures in the Barbizon school, Millet's work often depicted scenes from rural France, highlighting the struggles and resilience of peasants like those portrayed here. As we gaze upon this evocative image, we are reminded of Millet's profound ability to capture human emotion within seemingly ordinary moments. This print serves as an enduring testament to both his artistic prowess and his commitment to shedding light on forgotten members of society.
