Painting of a woman in a blue dress shearing a sheep in a tub, with a man in a straw hat at right, beside a thatched barn and fence.

The Sheepshearer (after Millet)

A woman in a pale blue dress and white cap leans over a sheep in a round tub, shearing its fleece, while a man in a straw hat works at the far right. Loose, swirling brushwork renders the thatched barn, wooden fence and straw-strewn ground in ochre and blue.

Español: El esquilador (según Millet)

Una mujer con un vestido azul pálido y una cofia blanca se inclina sobre una oveja en una tina redonda, esquilándole la lana, mientras un hombre con sombrero de paja trabaja a la derecha. Pinceladas sueltas y arremolinadas representan el granero con techo de paja, la cerca de madera y el suelo cubierto de paja en ocre y azul.

Português: O tosquiador (após Millet)

Uma mulher de vestido azul claro e touca branca se inclina sobre uma ovelha em uma tina redonda, tosquiando sua lã, enquanto um homem de chapéu de palha trabalha à direita. Pinceladas soltas e redemoinhadas representam o celeiro de telhado de palha, a cerca de madeira e o chão coberto de palha em ocre e azul.
