Sower 1882

"Sower" is a charcoal drawing by Vincent van Gogh from 1882. This early work depicts a peasant, likely a farmer, with a somber expression, perhaps reflecting the hardships of rural life. The figure's hunched posture, rough clothing, and the simplified landscape highlight van Gogh's interest in capturing the lives of ordinary people. His use of heavy, expressive lines and dark tones creates a powerful and emotive image.
