Reproductie van Retour des champs door Jean-François Millet before 1878

This reproduction of Jean-François Millet's "Retour des Champs" (Return from the Fields), a 19th-century masterpiece, was created by an unknown artist before 1878. It portrays a shepherdess standing in a field with her sheep returning from their grazing. The composition emphasizes the figure of the shepherdess, highlighting her weary posture as she leans on her staff, a symbol of her hard work. The image, now part of the Rijksmuseum collection, exemplifies the Realist movement's focus on depicting everyday life and the working class.
