REFRESHER:
A people-blob lady with a bunch of blob-turkeys in a verging-to-desolate fall landscape, with a village in the distance soaking in a burst of fall sun. This is work from the social realist artist Millet, who we'll be seeing again next week for the 'genre' genre. See the 'catalog entry' section on the Met's page for this piece for more details.
