About the piece

Created in 1884 during his time in Nuenen, this early masterpiece by Vincent van Gogh demonstrates his deep empathy for the rural working class. The composition uses a dark, earthy palette and heavy impasto to convey the weight and rhythm of the weaver's craft, with a single window providing a dramatic source of light.
