🎨 Vincent Van Gogh
"The Shepherdess (after Millet)", 1889
Oil on canvas
Created during Van Gogh's time in the asylum at Saint-Rémy, this work is one of several he painted as studies after the French artist Jean-François Millet, whose depictions of rural life deeply inspired him. Van Gogh brings his own swirling energy and vibrant palette to Millet’s quiet, grounded subject—a solitary shepherdess watching over her flock. 🌾🧶
> "What I see in Millet—that’s a life full of poetry."
— Vincent van Gogh
