Head of a Peasant with a Pipe 1885

"Head of a Peasant with a Pipe" is an oil-on-canvas painting by Vincent van Gogh, created in 1885. The painting, now housed at the Kröller-Müller Museum in the Netherlands, depicts a close-up portrait of a peasant man, likely a worker, with a pipe in his mouth. Van Gogh's signature style is evident in the painting's bold brushstrokes and vibrant colors, which capture the subject's weathered face and humble attire. The painting reflects van Gogh's fascination with the lives of working-class people, a recurring theme in his artistic output.
