. "The Gleaners"@en . . . "The Gleaners (Des glaneuses) is an oil painting by Jean-Fran\u00E7ois Millet completed in 1857. It depicts three peasant women gleaning a field of stray grains of wheat after the harvest. The painting is famous for featuring in a sympathetic way what were then the lowest ranks of rural society; this was received poorly by the French upper classes."@en . .
