The Weeders is an oil on canvas painting by Jules Breton, from 1868.
It depicts a group of peasant women working the fields of Northern France.
The painting is in the permanent collection of the Joslyn Art Museum in Omaha, Nebraska.
Originally a painter of historical scenes, Jules Breton began to shift with time his focus away from historicity to agrarian scenes.
One of the paintings produced as a result of this new focus was The Weeders, which Breton painted after observing a group of farmers in his home town of Courrières picking over a field to clear away weeds and thistle.
