EDITORS COMMENTS
This print, titled "Various Sketches" by Jean Francois Millet, dates back to the 19th century and offers a glimpse into the artistic mind of one of France's most renowned painters. Millet, a key figure of the Barbizon School, is celebrated for his realistic and emotive depictions of rural life. In this enchanting etching and drypoint on ivory laid ledger paper hand ruled in reddish brown ink, Millet showcases a collection of sketches, each one revealing a unique moment or figure. The black and white contrast enhances the intricacy and detail of the lines, bringing each sketch to life. The use of drypoint, a technique that involves etching directly onto a plate with a sharp point, adds texture and depth to the print. Millet's masterful handling of the medium is evident in the delicate yet expressive lines and the skillful shading. This print is a testament to Millet's artistic vision and his commitment to capturing the essence of the human experience. The Art Institute of Chicago is proud to house this heritage art piece in its extensive collection, inviting visitors to explore the rich artistic history of France and the Barbizon School.
