Sul dipinto

Léon Lhermitte (1844-1925) was born in Mont-Saint-Père but became a student at the Petite Ecole in Paris, under the supervision of Horace Lecoq de Boisbaudran (1802-1897), whose classes were also attended by Henri Fantin-Latour (1836-1904) and Alphonse Legros (1837-1911) among others. He exhibited at the Salon between 1866 and the first decade of the 20th century. He was a founder-member of the Société Nationale des Beaux-Arts in 1890 and was made officer of the Légion d'honneur in 1894.

This painting is typical of Lhermitte's peasant scenes. It shows a scene of everyday life outside of a church on the occasion of a religious feast called a 'Pardon' celebrated during Easter.
