"The Sheaf Binders" (French: "Les lieuses de gerbes") is an 1897 painting by the French realist artist Léon Augustin Lhermitte. The work is renowned for its meticulous depiction of rural life and the labor of peasants in the French countryside, a theme that Lhermitte was particularly fond of and frequently explored in his oeuvre. The painting portrays a group of peasants binding sheaves of wheat during the harvest, capturing the essence of agricultural work and the relationship between humans and the land.

Lhermitte's mastery in the use of light and shadow, as well as his ability to render the textures of the natural world, is evident in this piece. The artist's technique involves a combination of realism and a touch of idealization, which was typical of the period and resonated with contemporary audiences. His attention to detail and the dignified representation of peasant life contribute to the painting's emotional depth and realism.

"The Sheaf Binders" is a testament to Lhermitte's reputation as a leading figure in the Naturalist movement, which sought to depict everyday life with honesty and accuracy. The painting is also reflective of the broader social and cultural currents of the late 19th century, including the growing interest in the lives of the working class and the rural poor.

As of the knowledge cutoff date, the painting is held in a private collection or a museum, and it continues to be studied and admired for its technical skill and its poignant portrayal of rural labor. "The Sheaf Binders" remains an important work within Lhermitte's body of art and a valuable example of late 19th-century French realism.
