The Gleaners portrays three peasant women gleaning in the farmland after the autumn harvest, bending their bodies over, against the background of bustling farmers and wheat stacks piled high. Dressed in plain clothes and ponderous sabots, the three women look strong as they carefully look for leftover grain in the field to feed their families. Millet used to toil in the field in the morning and paint int he afternoon, and always eulogized farmers' sincerity, diligence, tenaciousness and goodness through his creations.
