Wheat Field with Cypresses 1889

"Wheat Field with Cypresses" (1889) is a drawing by Vincent van Gogh, currently housed at the Morgan Library and Museum in New York City. Known for his bold brushstrokes and vibrant colors in paintings, the artist utilized pen and ink to depict a simple yet powerful scene of a wheat field with a lone cypress tree standing tall. The drawing's composition, with the cypress tree in the foreground and a small farmhouse in the distance, creates a sense of depth and perspective, characteristic of van Gogh's later works. This piece showcases van Gogh's interest in capturing the beauty of the natural world and exploring the relationship between human beings and nature.
