Monticelli made a number of paintings of peasants at work in the fields, both in his native Provence & elsewhere in France. It is not certain where this particular harvest scene is set. ...

The smaller scenes relate to life of the Baptist. Left medallion: the Baptism of Christ; right medallion: Salome receiving the Baptist's head. Lower scenes perhaps show Saint John preaching, the Calling of Saint Andrew, & Saint John, again, with two figures (one a donor?). The subject of the head on a charger may be derived from Milanese paintings. ...

Saint John the Baptist was beheaded at Herodias's request, & his head was then presented to Salome on a charger (Matthew 14: 1-12). There is some evidence that Leonardo painted a ' Head of Saint John the Baptist on a Charger' while staying in Milan, & there are many Milanese pictures of the early 16th century of this subject which, like this one, may have been closely derived from Leonardo. ...

Christ is made the compositional centre of the scene & the blind man is shown twice: first having his eyes touched, & then at the moment his sight is miraculously restored. The two episodes are linked visually by the blind man's stick. This was one of the scenes on the back predella of Duccio's ' Maestà'. The back predella illustrated scenes from Christ's life & ministry. This panel was originally immediately to the left of ' The Transfiguration', hence the blind man appeared to look with his newly restored sight at a vision of Christ transfigured. Another panel from the ' Maestà' is in the collection: ' The Annunciation'. The figures & the architecture were probably painted by different artists from Duccio's workshop. The face of the blindman at the fountain was damaged in the past & is a modern restoration. ...
