"Orphan Man with Top Hat, Holding Cup" is a drawing created by Vincent van Gogh in 1882. The drawing portrays a man, presumably an orphan, wearing a top hat and a long coat. The man is depicted holding a cup, which could symbolize his poverty and need for sustenance. This early work by van Gogh, created before his iconic style emerged, demonstrates his skill in capturing the human form through the expressive use of lines and shading. The drawing is currently housed at the Smith College Museum of Art in Northampton, MA, USA.
