Road with Men Walking, Carriage, Cypress, Star, and Crescent Moon 1890

"Road with Men Walking, Carriage, Cypress, Star, and Crescent Moon" is a pen and ink drawing by Vincent van Gogh, created in 1890. It is now housed in the Van Gogh Museum in Amsterdam, Netherlands. This quick sketch, typical of van Gogh’s style, depicts a winding road with two figures walking towards a tall cypress tree in the foreground. In the distance, we can also see a village, a carriage, and a star and crescent moon in the sky. The drawing is characterized by van Gogh's signature expressive lines and use of hatching to create a sense of depth and texture. This work demonstrates the artist’s exploration of natural elements and rural life, characteristic of his work during his time in the south of France.
