Est: $400 - $800
Jean Millet (1814-1875) French, "Lecon de Tricot" Framed First Printing Etching on Paper. Etching in black ink on fine watermarked laid paper, hand pulled from the copper plate executed in Paris in 1873. Depicts two figures huddled together in a dark room, the elder showing the younger how to knit. Signed bottom left and titled bottom right in the plate. Comes with certificate of authenticity and prior bill of sale. Overall Size: 13 x 12 in. Sight Size: 5 x 4 1/2 in. Jean-François Millet was born on October 4th, 1814 in Normandy, France and spent his youth working on his father’s farm before being sent to study with the portrait painter Bon Du Mouchel in Cherbourg in 1833. His innate talent led him to receive a scholarship to the École des Beaux-Arts in Paris in 1837, but his scholarship was terminated when his first submission to the Salon was rejected in 1839, and his wife Pauline died of consumption in 1844, leading him to return to Cherbourg. Undeterred, he remarried and moved first to Le Havre and then back to Paris, where he became friends with Constant Troyon, Narcisse Diaz, Charles Jacque, and Théodore Rousseau, founding the Barbizon school with them and finally achieving success at the Salon in the late 1840s. Often simultaneously scorned and adored by critics, his oil paintings of peasant farmers and landscapes were considered a fundamental part of the Realism art movement, and his pastels, Conté crayon drawings, and etchings brought him government patronage and financial stability in the 1860s. Sadly, the Franco-Prussian War uprooted his family and led to declining health, and he died on January 20th, 1875, unaware of the massive influence he would have on future artists like Georges Seurat, Salvador Dalí, Claude Monet, and Vincent van Gogh.

Jean-François MILLET (1814–1875)Ferme dans un paysage, vers 1870Huile sur toile, signée en bas à gauche « J. F. Millet »58 × 73,7 cm (78,5 × 94,5 cm avec cadre) ProvenanceAnciennes collections : Secretan, Edonars, Foinard (Paris) ; Goupil & Verledon, Paris (1892) ; M. C.M.S. White (1893), par descendance à sa fille ; Kievits Galleries, Pasadena (1931) ; Colonel Slocum, Washington D.C. (1932) ; Galerie Knoedler, New York ; Margaret O. F. Proctor ; Christie’s, New York, 12 octobre 1979, lot 50 ; collection privée par descendance. CommentaireDans une lumière printanière douce, deux bâtiments de ferme se nichent au creux d’un vallon normand. Tout autour, haies, prairies et ruisseaux structurent un paysage paisible. Vaches, poules et oies animent discrètement la scène, inscrite dans une nature verdoyante et sereine. Millet traite la matière en touches séparées, aux contours estompés, dans une facture de plus en plus libre qui anticipe l’impressionnisme. Issu d’un milieu paysan, Jean-François Millet est l’une des figures majeures de l’école de Barbizon. Il consacre son œuvre à la vie rurale, non seulement comme sujet pictural mais aussi comme symbole d’un monde ancestral et intemporel. Contrairement à ses confrères, il ne se limite pas au paysage : l’humain et les gestes du travail agricole restent au cœur de sa vision. Ce tableau, peint probablement lors de son séjour en Normandie entre 1870 et 1871, reflète l’évolution de son style vers des compositions plus épurées, centrées sur la nature, et révèle son rôle dans la transition vers l’art moderne.

ATTR JEAN FRANCOIS MILLET FRENCH OIL PAINTING
Est: $100 - $150
Attributed to Jean Francois Millet, French, 1814 to 1875, an antique 19th century oil on board painting depicting a forest landscape. Note: Jean-Francois Millet was the son of Normandy farmers and began studying painting in Cherbourg, France. In 1838, with the aid of a scholarship, he moved to Paris and became briefly, a pupil of Paul Delaroche, but soon decided that he preferred to work alone. In 1849, he was persuaded by Charles-Emile Jacque to settle with his new family in Barbizon and discovered the green landscapes of this region where Rousseau and Diaz were already living. Unlike the other Barbizon painters he was principally inspired by the occupations rather than the scenery of rural life and the daily toil of the peasants became his preferred subject. One of a kind artwork. Classic European Landscape Paintings And Fine Art Collectibles.
