Landscape with House and Ploughman, 1889 by Vincent van Gogh

Landscape with House and Ploughman, painted by Vincent van Gogh in 1889, presents a sweeping bird’s-eye view over the hills near Saint-Rémy, where a red-roofed farmhouse nestles among cypress trees as a lone ploughman works a winding hillside path. Van Gogh painted the canvas during his year of convalescence at the Saint-Paul asylum, channeling restless energy into swirling ochre wheat fields and rhythmic brushwork across the terraced valley. The elevated vantage point, unusual within his oeuvre, reflects views he could see from the asylum grounds, transforming an ordinary Provençal scene into a vibrant meditation on labor and land.

Artist: Vincent van Gogh (Dutch, 1853-1890). Date: 1889.
