The Salon rejects “Saint Anne Instructing the Virgin”
His first submission to the Salon, “Saint Anne Instructing the Virgin”, was rejected by the jury.

An ill fit at the École: the Louvre instead of the academy
Millet could not adapt to the academic system of teaching, tried unsuccessfully to win the Prix de Rome, lost his scholarship and had to leave the École; he then taught himself, copying works by Mantegna, Velázquez, Poussin and Delacroix in the Louvre.

The Salon of 1840: his first accepted portrait
His first painting accepted at the Salon, a portrait, was shown in 1840, after which Millet returned to Cherbourg to begin a career as a portrait painter.
1840s
Gallant scenes and portraits for sale
From 1840 he exhibited at the Paris Salon, at first with “gallant scenes” in the Rococo taste. Back in Cherbourg he earned his living by selling portraits of relatives and of a few clients, and also painted erotic pictures.
