Vincent van Gogh
Dutch, Zundert 1853–1890 Auvers-sur-Oise
Vincent van Gogh, a Dutch artist born in Zundert and active until his death in Auvers-sur-Oise in 1890, is represented here by a compact group of twenty-nine works that trace his restless, expressive handling of paint and drawing across the 1880s. The selection leans heavily on oil on canvas, with portraits, shoes, irises and wheat fields showing his intense engagement with color and surface, while a handful of sheets reveal his graphic side through transfer lithography, chalk, pencil, pastel and watercolor. The dates recorded for these sheets span 1881 to 1890, including later impressions up to that final year, so the holdings range from early drawing exercises to the dense, swirling compositions of his last period.
