Landscape in Stormy Weather 1885

Vincent van Gogh’s 1885 drawing, *Landscape in Stormy Weather*, depicts a dramatic scene of windswept trees and a darkening sky. Executed in black chalk and white chalk on paper, this drawing is a striking example of van Gogh’s early use of line and shading to convey movement and atmosphere. This work is a study in the artist’s signature style of expressionism, which became a dominant force in early 20th-century painting. The drawing can be found at the Van Gogh Museum in Amsterdam, Netherlands.
