The artwork, entitled “Wheat Field,” was created by Vincent van Gogh in 1888 in Arles, Bouches-du-Rhône, France. Crafted using oil on canvas, it belongs to the Post-Impressionism art movement. This landscape painting, measuring 50 by 61 centimeters, is presently housed in the P. and N. de Boer Foundation in Amsterdam, Netherlands.
The artwork portrays a sprawling wheat field under a dynamic sky, rendered in thick, expressive brushstrokes characteristic of van Gogh’s style. The golden hues of the wheat are punctuated by pockets of red and green, suggesting the vibrancy of the field. In the background, serene structures and distant trees contribute to the peaceful yet lively atmosphere, evoking the rural beauty of the French countryside. The sky above, with its blend of blues and purples, contrasts poignantly with the warm yellows of the field below, encapsulating a moment of natural splendor.
