{"product_id":"dessin-par-jean-baptiste-millet","title":"Drawing by Jean-Baptiste Millet","description":"A beautiful drawing by the Norman painter Jean-Baptiste Millet (1830-1906). Through this work, with its simple composition and executed exclusively with hatching, Millet perfectly expresses the shadows and light surrounding this woman, seated in a corner of her home.\n\nJean-Baptiste Millet was a French painter, sculptor, and engraver from the second half of the 19th century, known for his naturalist-inspired landscapes and rural scenes. He was the younger brother of the painter Jean-François Millet (1814-1875), famous for his oil paintings, particularly \"The Gleaners\" and \"The Angelus.\"\n\nJean-Baptiste Millet's work follows in the tradition of realism, with a particular focus on nature, country life, and luminous atmospheres. Appreciated for his masterful touch and sense of composition, he remains present in the antique art market and in private collections.\n\nA handwritten dedication is present on the reverse. It appears to be by Jean-François Millet.\n\n\"Hameau de Gruchy\"\n\nThe drawing itself measures 11 by 8 inches.","brand":"Les Antiquités Bolduc","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":62626529083763,"sku":null,"price":595.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0972\/0505\/9955\/files\/20251209_0603-scaled.jpg?v=1773862781","url":"https:\/\/www.lesantiquitesbolduc.com\/en\/products\/dessin-par-jean-baptiste-millet","provider":"Les Antiquités Bolduc","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
