Lots of school field trips this time of year.
Here are a few of my personal favorites.
The Gleaners is one of Millet's best known works. Its imagery of bending peasant women gleaning was repeated frequently in works by younger artists such as Pissarro, Renoir, Seurat, and van Gogh.
Art historian Robert Rosenblum says
"Daumier's and Degas's laundresses, and even more so Caillebotte's floor-scrapers, are almost unthinkable without Millet's epic hymn to labor."

Talk about a rich art experience. You saw half of my art history textbook in one post! Love seeing Rodin in his studio, and his perspective that "Beauty is everywhere." I like to think that too.
