Peasant Girl Standing 1881

This charcoal drawing by Vincent van Gogh, "Peasant Girl Standing" (1881), depicts a young woman standing with her head bowed and her hands folded. The subject’s humble clothing and posture evoke a sense of simplicity and hard work, common themes in van Gogh's early works. The artist's use of strong lines and expressive hatching give the figure a sense of depth and emotion. "Peasant Girl Standing" is currently on display at the Kröller-Müller Museum in Otterlo, Netherlands.
