19th Century French School ''mother Pig And Piglets''
Artist: Ecole Française Xixème
The Barbizon painters had a very strong link with the animal world, which was very modern for the time, and they represented them with tenderness. The depictions of peasant life by Jean-François Millet, the description of the solitudes of the forest of Fontainebleau by Théodore Rousseau and others, centered on the village of Barbizon, provide insight into a vigorous current in French art of Nineteenth century. Controversial in France, but avidly collected in America, these independent painters decisively rejected idealism and polish in favor of an earthy sincerity of vision on the threshold of Impressionism.
