Flower Nursery on the Schenkweg in The Hague 1882 - 1883

This drawing, created by Vincent van Gogh in 1882-1883, captures a simple yet evocative scene of a flower nursery in The Hague. The artist, known for his later bold brushstrokes and vibrant colors, uses a more restrained, yet expressive style in this early work. The graphite lines depict a scene of a man working in the field, surrounded by bare trees and a fence, suggesting a quiet winter landscape. This drawing showcases van Gogh's early experimentation with capturing the nuances of light and shadow, a skill that would later be central to his artistic expression.
