	Eugeen Van Mieghem - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		He became the artist of the typical harbour folk: sack porters, sack makers, emigrants, dockers, bargees, and tramps.
		At the end of November 1904 his young wife fell ill. Van Mieghem depicted her in an impressive series of drawings and pastels that rate alongside similar work by such artists as Rembrandt (The Serie of Saskia) and Ferdinand Hodler (Valentine Godé).
		When it comes to capturing social reality, his work has much of the power and authenticity of Jean-François Millet's.

		Of the fifty-three paintings, twelve are by Monet, spanning the artist’s mature career from his days in Argenteuil to his later work at Giverny, including Camille Monet and a Child in the Artist’s Garden at Argenteuil, 1875, Meadow with Haystacks near Giverny, circa 1875 and Waterlilies, 1905.
		Hunt’s aesthetic interests and his friendship with Jean François Millet resulted not only in the MFA’s unparalleled collection of Barbizon paintings — including Millet's Three Men Shearing Sheep in a Barn, about 1852, and End of the Hamlet of Gruchy,1866 — but also in the adoption of that style by a number of Boston artists.
		Aside from Millet, the French painter who most inspired Boston artists and collectors was Jean-Baptiste-Camille Corot, whose poetic landscapes, like Forest of Fontainebleau (1846) and Bathers in a Clearing (about 1870-75), seemed tailor-made for a community deeply associated with the naturalist writings of New Englanders Ralph Waldo Emerson and Henry David Thoreau.

		During this period his main influences were Poussin and Eustache Le Sueur, and the type of work he produced consisted predominantly of mythological subjects or portraiture, at which he was especially adept.

		In 1848 he exhibited The Winnower (now lost) at the Salon, and this was praised by Théophile Gautier and bought by Alexandre Ledru-Rollin, the Minister of the Interior.
		In 1849, when a cholera epidemic broke out in Paris, Millet moved to Barbizon on the advice of the engraver Charles-Emile Jacque (1813-94) and took a house near that of Théodore Rousseau.

		He also visited Italy again (in 1834 and 1843), and went to Holland (1854) and England (1862).
		His friendship in the late 1840s with the Barbizon painters Rosseau, Millet, Troyon and Dupre greatly influenced his art.
		Around this time he changed his style; his romantic-lyrical landscapes ("Paysages in times") interpret nature in her various moods, and in the most delicate dull silver tones.

	Welcome to the Frick
		The exhibition also illustrates the importance of landscape to early nineteenth-century French artists, who sought to create images of calm that were far removed from the fast-expanding metropolis of Paris.
		These efforts to find new ways of observing and transforming nature are represented in the exhibition by the work of Barbizon painters such as Millet, Theodore Rousseau, Constant Troyon, and Charles-Émile Jacque.
		Nature also intrigued the Impressionist mainstream of the mid-to-late nenieteenth century, with artists seeking to blend nature and civilization in a palette emphasizing the fugitive qualities of light.
