The Weeders

Jules Adolphe Aimé Louis Breton was a 19th-century French naturalist painter. His paintings are heavily influenced by the French countryside and his absorption of traditional methods of painting helped make him one of the primary transmitters of the beauty and idyllic vision of rural existence.

The Weeders is an oil on canvas painting by Jules Breton, from 1868. It depicts a group of peasant women working the fields of Northern France. The painting is in the permanent collection of the Joslyn Art Museum in Omaha, Nebraska.
