THE SOWER

Vincent van Gogh • 1888 • Oil on canvas

The Sower by Van Gogh

One of over thirty takes on this theme across his career, this version pushes into bold, unnatural color. There's a greenish-yellow sky, a purple field, and a bright round sun. Here, color is more about the painting's emotion rather than reality, which makes sense given its theme.

❝ The imagery and colors remind me of a long day of work and constant labor. ❞
