on Titian, in his 'Le Déjeuner sur l'herbe'.
Anyway, any homage wasn't my first priority at all. But knowing there were precedents, and working knowing of them, brought more intensity to creating the piece. To consciously sharpen it into a new thing around respect for the originals.

Then I thought, "Oh No! Caillebotte's 'Floor Scrapers'!".
So I hesitated, and had to think about it a while. I figured Caillebotte would have known of the Millet, I knew about both of 'em.
So, I'd be in good stead doing an update on aspects of the classics - like Manet did with his acidic riff
