“Paysages de la Hague, par les petits-fils de Jean-François Millet ” (exposition temporaire) – Maison natale Jean-François Millet

Having settled in Barbizon in 1849, Millet rarely returned to Gruchy, "his place", but sketched its landscapes on each of his trips.
After his stay in Normandy in 1871, he multiplied the number of works evoking the places of his childhood, because he knew he would never see them again. Landscapes thus took on a testamentary value for him, and became the main subject of his last compositions.

Charles Heyman and Jean-Charles Millet, grandsons of Jean-François Millet, also drew and painted the Hague of their childhood.
Discover the Hague of Millet?s two descendants through a selection of original works in the graphic art cabinet.

Closed on Mondays.
