Jean François Millet (French, 1814-1875) is best known for his foundation of the Barbizon school of painting. He valued realism and often portrayed the working man (or woman) in the fields of rural France. Millet would go on to inspire a younger generation of artists, including Vincent Van Gogh and Claude Monet. Today, his paintings reside in the world’s most hallowed museums and private collections. On the rare occasion that one is auctioned, it often fetches a price in the millions.
