About the original work
For the relatively unknown watercolour Landscape with a farm, Vincent van Gogh used a phenomenal colour palette. The work foreshadows the later rich colouring for which Van Gogh is known. As far as we know, this watercolour has not been shown in a museum presentation before.
Inspiratie en experiment
Van Gogh’s time spent in Drenthe was important in his development as an artist. The Drenthe landscape offered him plenty of inspiration to experiment. The exhibition and publication of the same name Op reis met Vincent (Travelling with Vincent) focuses on the technique and splendour of colour in works such as Peasant burning weeds and Landscape with a farm. Besides more than 20 Van Goghs, works by sources of inspiration and contemporaries are also on display.
About the Artist
Vincent van Gogh was a Dutch post-impressionist painter who is considered one of the greatest artists of all time. Born in 1853 in the Netherlands, van Gogh started his career as an art dealer before deciding to pursue painting at the age of 27. Despite struggling with mental illness and poverty throughout his life, van Gogh created some of the most celebrated works of art in history, including “Starry Night,” “Sunflowers,” and “The Potato Eaters.” His use of bold colors and expressive brushstrokes influenced countless artists and movements that followed, making him a seminal figure in the development of modern art. Van Gogh died in 1890 at the age of 37, but his legacy continues to inspire and captivate art lovers around the world today.
