EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases "The Gleaners" a renowned etching created by Jean-Francois Millet in 1855. Measuring 19.1x25.4 cm, this artwork is housed at the Dallas Museum of Art in Texas, USA. Published by Auguste DelAtre, this piece captures the essence of rural life and poverty during that era. In this realistic depiction, three female workers are seen diligently picking and bending over to gather grains from a field. The arduous nature of their work is evident as they toil under the scorching sun. Millet's attention to detail brings out the hardships faced by these poor gleaners. "The Gleaners" not only portrays agricultural labor but also serves as a powerful commentary on social inequality and economic disparity prevalent in society at that time. It sheds light on the struggles faced by those working in agriculture and emphasizes their resilience amidst challenging circumstances. This print offers viewers an opportunity to reflect on the importance of hard work and empathy towards those less fortunate. It serves as a reminder of our collective responsibility to address poverty and uplift marginalized communities. Bridgeman Images has beautifully captured this iconic artwork, allowing us to appreciate its historical significance while contemplating its relevance even today.
