Book excerpt: "Born a peasant in Normandy, Jean-François Millet was acclaimed during his lifetime as the greatest 'peasant painter' of the nineteenth century. Although the classical solidity of his figures looked back to Michelangelo, his admirers and disciples included such revolutionary Post-Impressionists as Gauguin, Seurat and van Gogh. Neglected by subsequent generations, Millet has recently won an increasingly appreciative public, especially following the retrospective exhibitions of his work held in Paris and London in 1975-76."--From book cover.
