Excerpt from Jean-Francois Millet, Peasant and Painter Alfred Sensier, whose posthumous book is here published, was a man who intersted himself in historical things, who loved, almost with passion, pictures, drawings, and engravings, and who defended with the msot indefatigable devotion some of the gretest artists of this century. He fought for them and by their side. In future years the name of Sensier will be always associated with the names of Theodore Rousseau. Diaz, and Millet. Born of Paris on the 25th of December, 1815, the son of a lawyer who delighted in books, Alfred Sensier heard, from childhood, the gossip of "Vignette editions" as well as the severer discussions of the law. Although he spent some of his youthful years in a lawyer's office, Sensier was always fond of pictures. While pursuing his law course, he watched with a passionate attention the great battles of modern art and its triumphs. When we first knew Alfred Sensier, a little while after the proc-lamation of the second Republic, he had just entered the Louvre with Jeanron. From the 1st of April 1848, to the end of 1850, he fulfilled the functions of Chief de Bureau de Musees. it was especially at this time that he was curious about collecting authentic documents on the subject of the Revolution and its leaders.

"During his lifetime, the French artist Jean-Franðcois Millet (1814-1875) was frequently criticized for his peasant paintings. Traditionalists objected to his raw, radical technique and the sharp social critique they perceived in his work. Shortly after his death, however, Millet was embraced as a national hero who had captured the French countryside in all its glory. The artist's fame extended from Europe to America and Russia, and his modern style and sympathetic depiction of peasant life remained a source of inspiration until well into the twentieth century. This publication sets Millet's work in the context of the figures he inspired: artists including Vincent van Gogh, Claude Monet, Giovanni Segantini, Winslow Homer, Paula Modersohn-Becker, Kazimir Malevich, Edvard Munch, and Salvador Dalâi"--
