L'immagine è stata ordinata dal milionario americano Thomas G. Appleton e il suo prezzo è poi salito sul cielo (il miglio viveva in grande povertà e spesso ha dovuto prendere in prestito). Le linee delle patate sono illuminate da calde luce sera e l'uomo e la donna hanno interrotto il lavoro per pregare il ginocchio (che probabilmente suona le campane dalla chiesa sullo sfondo). L'immagine è un tributo a duro lavoro umano, pietà, umiltà e rispetto per la natura. L'immagine non ha negato che lo stesso Millet fosse molto bene da una famiglia contadina e una scena simile.

Jean-Francois Millet (1814-1875). At the outset of his career, he refused the stereotyped concept of painting and became a free portrait painter. He influenced Impressionists through his selection of topics: he painted simple people, poor farmers and the humility of hardworking people. He loved the countryside where he lived, devoted a lot of energy for rural people. Millet’s paintings are characterized by an interesting, gold and melancholy light that gives his landscapes a religious character. The Angelus - church bells in the distance strike as two people say a prayer of thanks for the harvest (ironically, the Louvre auctioned this painting for an astronomical sum). Gleaners. The monumentality of characters achieved through simplification of the environment (which was later used by Seurat) is clamped from above by the horizon. The image probably expresses the oppression of peasants (especially women without voting rights) after 1848.
