Head of a Peasant 1885

"Head of a Peasant" is a portrait by Vincent van Gogh, created in 1885. The oil-on-canvas painting depicts a peasant man's face in profile, with a simple, dark background. The thick brushstrokes and vivid colors characteristic of van Gogh’s style give the painting a raw and expressive quality. This artwork showcases the artist's exploration of everyday life and the people who lived it, a common theme in his work. It's on display at the Kröller-Müller Museum, Otterlo, Netherlands.
