Description:
|
Between 1886 and 1893, Emile Bernard regularly took his family on holiday to Saint-Briac, a small Breton village between the Bay of Mont-Saint-Michel and the Bay of Saint-Brieuc. He first met Gauguin there in 1886, but it wasn't until 1888 that the two artists met up at Pont-Aven, where they shared their research into the radical simplification of shapes, into abandoning traditional perspective, and using flat areas of color outlined by dark contours recalling the leadwork of stained glass. During his stays in Brittany, Bernard turned towards the day-to-day tasks of the peasants, like those of the harvesters in this painting, already celebrated by Millet.
