About The Man With The Hoe
The Man with the Hoe is a poem by the American poet Edwin Markham, inspired by Jean-François Millet's painting L'homme à la houe, a painting interpreted as a socialist protest about the peasant's plight. The poem was first presented as a public poetry reading at a New Year's Eve party in 1898.
