'Who has painted solitude so that the solitary seemed to stand alone and inaccessible? There is the loneliness of the shepherdess in many a drawing of J.F.Millet. The little figure is away, aloof. The girl stands so when the painter is gone. She waits so on the sun for the closing of the hours of pasture. Millet has her as she looks, out of sight.' Alice Meynell

writes of young Arabian shepherdesses who wear tall conical hats. On the evening skyline she watches them make their way homeward, trailing their long skirts in the dust.
