No. 644.—WOMEN GLEANING

(Les Glaneuses)

In a harvest-field three female gleaners, seen in profile to the

left, are occupied with picking up blades of corn. Two of them are

bending right down, with their right hands touching the ground; the

third woman is half erect. In the background some ricks, a cart and

horses, harvesters, a farm building, and a horseman.

Signed on right:—“J. F. MILLET.”

Painted in oil on canvas.
