"Au repos" is a painting by Jean-François Millet, a prominent figure in the Barbizon school of French painting. Millet's work is known for its focus on rural life and the depiction of peasants working the land. The painting depicts a woman reclining in a field, her body partially obscured by foliage. This somber and intimate scene showcases Millet's mastery of capturing the subtle nuances of light and shadow, creating a sense of quiet contemplation and natural beauty. The painting's muted tones and loose brushwork further contribute to its melancholic and contemplative mood.
