Jean-Franccedil;ois Millet was a French painter and one of the founders of the Barbizon school in rural France. Millet is noted for his scenes of peasant farmers; he can be categorized as part of the movements of Realism and Naturalism. Millet portrayed the gravity; hardship; and dignity of common agricultural laborers; but; despite being labeled a "Socialist revolutionary;" his viewpoint was less political than fatalistic. His humanity toward peasant life deeply impressed many painters; including Vincent Van Gogh; Claude Monet; and Georges Seurat.
