Location: National Gallery of Art, London

About Artwork: (1846-7) "A woman sits on a rocky ledge, her head turned toward a young naked child presented in the guise of a putto or cupid. He is trying to attract her attention. This painting is an early example of the rural subject matter that Millet began to explore in around 1845, and which by 1847 formed a substantial portion of his output. He was still looking to such eighteenth-century artists as Watteau and Boucher, yet at the same time both the majesty of the woman’s profile and her position on the bank can be linked with Michelangelo, particularly his figures in the Sistine Chapel. Throughout the picture Millet has used a red-brown paint to underpaint the shadowed areas, and has left it visible, for example in the deep fold of the skirt between the woman’s legs. He has overlaid this layer with thick paint." - (National Gallery of Art, London)
