{"product_id":"jean-francois-millet-estelle-m-hurll-9781544633909","title":"Jean Francois Millet","description":"In figure painting Millet sought neither grace nor beauty, but expression. That he regarded neither of these first two qualities as intrinsically unworthy, we may infer from the grace of the Sower, and the naïve beauty of the Shepherdess and the Woman Sewing. But that expression was of paramount interest to him we see clearly in the Angelus and the Man with the Hoe. The leading characteristic of his art is strength, and he distrusted the ordinary elements of prettiness as taking something from the total effect he wished to produce. \"Let no one think that they can force me to prettify my types,\" he said. \"I would rather do nothing than express myself feebly.\" It was always his first aim to make his people look as if they belonged to their station.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Estelle M.
