Old Man with a Stick 1882

This charcoal drawing, “Old Man with a Stick”, created in 1882 by Vincent van Gogh, depicts a man standing with a stick and wearing a coat and a hat. The figure's stooped posture and deeply etched facial features convey an air of weary resignation. A simple, yet profound subject, this piece exemplifies van Gogh's early exploration of human form and his interest in the lives of ordinary people. Now housed in the Van Gogh Museum, Amsterdam, this work offers a glimpse into the Dutch artist's signature style, marked by bold lines and expressive brushstrokes.
