Cottages

Jean-François Millet

Cleveland Museum of Art

The image depicts a sketch of cottages. The sketch is drawn on aged paper with rough, torn edges. The drawing is in brown ink and depicts several cottages with sloping roofs. The cottages are surrounded by trees and bushes. The foreground is mostly empty except for a few scribbled lines. The artist's initials "JFM" are written in the bottom-right corner. The background of the paper is stained and discolored. The cottages appear to be rural and simple in design. The trees and bushes are densely packed around the cottages. The overall scene is serene and peaceful. The title of the work is "Cottages" by Jean-François Millet.
