Léon Augustin Lhermitte, master of rural realism

Léon Augustin Lhermitte, painter and engraver active at the end of the 19th century, established himself as one of the great witnesses of social realism. Influenced by the naturalist school and by an unflinching observation of peasant life, he knew how to render the suffering and nobility of rural work with remarkable precision. Known for his scenes of harvests, family life, and workshops, Lhermitte favored effects of light and the truth of textures. His meticulous practice of drawing and color gives each composition an authentic and moving quality, and this art print of The Rest of the Peasants perpetuates the documentary and poetic strength of his work.
