Pierres en Lumières > Château fort de Pirou
Pirou | Updated: March 17, 2024 02:06 AMLocation: Pirou Castle
Address: 4 Rue des Claires, 50460 Cherbourg-en-Cotentin, France
Date: 17 May
A selection of original drawings in the graphic arts room features La Hague by the two Millet brothers.
Having settled in Barbizon in 1849, Jean-François Millet rarely returned to Gruchy, "his place", but sketched its landscapes on each of his trips.
After his stay in Normandy in 1871, he produced an increasing number of works evoking the places of his childhood, because he knew he would never see them again. Landscapes thus took on a testamentary value for him, and became the main subject of his last compositions.
Jean-Baptiste Millet, younger brother and pupil of Jean-François Millet, also showed a deep attachment to Gruchy and the landscapes of his childhood.
