"Harvester Holding her Sickle" is a significant work of art by noted French painter Alexandre-Jean-Baptiste Hesse. Born on July 24th, 1806, Hesse is recognized for his contribution to the field of history painting, specializing in religious and historical subjects. "Harvester Holding her Sickle," one of his outstanding works, portrays an emblematic figure of a woman in the middle of her workday on the farm, the afternoon lightadding a calming yet dynamic aura to the figure and landscape.

While the precise creation year of the work is not definitive in historical records, it aligns wonderfully with Hesse's known works from the 19th century. The piece employs the realist technique so greatly valued during the time, focussing on the common man (or in this case, woman)'s experience rather than grand, historical events or figures.

The painting's subject, a female agricultural worker, holds a sickle in her hands, standing as the epitome of the robust, independent rural woman central to much of the agrarian fabric of 19th century France. It reflects the broader societal values and the reality of manual labor carried out by many women in this era, parallelly highlighting Hesse's eye for detail and his remarkable ability to capture human expression and emotion through his brush.

Like most of Hesse's oeuvre, "Harvester Holding her Sickle" is a testament to the artist's talent and technique, offering a glimpse of the society and values of 19th-century France and standing tall within the esteemed artist's portfolio of masterful depictions of everyday life.
