Jean-François Millet

Cleveland Museum of Art

The image depicts Jean-François Millet's "Woman Sewing". The woman sits in a chair, hunched over her sewing. She wears a long dress with a head covering. Her right leg is crossed over her left. The woman's head is tilted down. The room has a window on the right with a diamond-shaped grid. The window has a sill with fabric on it. The background shows a wall and what appears to be a fireplace on the left. The entire image is rendered in dark brown lines and shading on light brown paper.
