About the piece

Painted during his stay at Saint-Rémy in late 1889, this work showcases Van Gogh's rhythmic brushwork and emotive palette. The scene depicts a peasant walking through an enclosed field, framed by the rugged Les Alpilles mountains and a dynamic sky. The interplay of vibrant blues and warm ochres reflects the artist's deep connection to the natural cycle of the rural landscape.
