EDITORS COMMENTS
This print, titled "Signature Fragment from The Shepherdess" by Jean Francois Millet (1814-1875), is a testament to the rich artistic heritage of the Barbizon School and the 19th century art movement in France. Millet, a renowned painter and printmaker, is known for his realistic and emotive depictions of rural life. In this woodcut print, Millet's distinctive handwriting is prominently featured, adding an intriguing layer to the artwork. The signature, written in lower case with a subtle elegance, is a reminder of the artist's personal touch and the human element behind the creation. The black and white contrast of the woodcut on tan wove china paper laid down on white Japanese hinge paper creates a striking visual effect, further emphasizing the textural qualities of the medium. The close-up perspective of the signature fragment invites viewers to contemplate the artistic process and the significance of the artist's name. Millet's woodcut, with its bold lines and intricate details, is a testament to the skill and mastery of the artist, as well as the enduring allure of the art of the past. This print is part of the vast and diverse collection of the Art Institute of Chicago, a leading art museum and cultural institution that continues to inspire and educate visitors from around the world. The Signature Fragment from The Shepherdess is a valuable addition to the museum's collection, showcasing not only the artistic prowess of Millet but also the rich history and legacy of the Barbizon School and the 19th century art movement in France.
