 #1 The Glasgow weaver - by Leon Augustin Lhermitte. Lhermitte greatly admired the work of Millet and like the older artist chose to paint and draw scenes of rural life. In this magnificent charcoal he draws a scene in a weaver's cottage - a young girl is seated, working at a spinning wheel, while behind her a man weaves at a loom by the light from a small window. - 1882 Acquired 1940 by Art Gallery and Museum, Kelvingrove, Glasgow
