Description of the artwork

Van Gogh’s first masterpiece , during his early years in Holland , a painting to which the artist himself attached great importance, was The Potato Eaters. This painting, preceded by various preparatory versions, was executed in April 1885 in Nuenen , a town in South Brabant where the artist’s father worked as a shepherd.

The simple harmony of the interior, with its exposure of poverty, if not outright misery, shows a compassionate Van Gogh willing to tackle the most shocking social themes, ready to pictorially describe the harsh and hard life of the peasants just as he had once shared the toil and fate of the miners.
At the same time, according to the artist, the painting reflected a criterion of beauty that was close to the subject treated, according to which painting must express even with violence, distorting reality.

A peasant is more authentic in his corduroy clothes in the fields than when he goes to Sunday Mass in a sort of formal dress. Similarly, I believe it’s wrong to give a painting of peasants a smooth, conventional surface. If a painting of peasants smells of bacon, smoke, steam rising from boiling potatoes, that’s fine, it’s not unhealthy; if a stable smells of manure, that’s fine, it’s right that stables smell that way; if a field smells of ripe wheat, potatoes, guano, or tops, that’s fine , especially for city folk.
Letter to Theo Van Gogh

Composition of the work The Potato Eaters

Inside a very poor house, five peasants are enjoying their frugal meal of steaming potatoes and boiling black coffee, immersed in a darkness dimly illuminated by the glow of a kerosene lamp hanging from the ceiling beams. Their gnarled hands, which have dug the soil, planted, and harvested the very potatoes they eat, their faces outlined by angular planes, hollowed by toil and resignation, are the essential elements of the painting.

The setting, supported by an approximate perspective , is based above all on the arrangement of the table in the foreground, highlighted by the light of the lamp , and on the various gestures of the people gathered around it according to points of view that propose them from the front, from behind and three-quarters.
Of the humble dwelling, only a piece of furniture, on the right, with a teapot on it, and some wooden dishes on a shelf, above which is the elderly woman pouring coffee, are visible. Finally, a print depicting a crucifixion, a sign of the peasant family’s sincere faith.

The earthy, mellow colors are limited to ochre, brown, and dark green, and are so similar in gradation that they give the impression of a monochrome painting.

Vincent Van Gogh lived in Nuenen for two years (from December 1883 to November 1885). The painter created a quarter of his entire artistic output there. He drew and painted mainly weavers and farmers in the fields, but he also frequently wandered around, observing the landscape around him. His first masterpiece, The Potato Eaters, was created here.

The disappointment of Paris

Disappointed by the café life of the Parisian artists and the oppressive atmosphere of the city winter, in mid-February 1888 Van Gogh left Paris to seek relief in the healthy, sunny climate of Arles .
Getting off the train in the southern town, however, he found a snowy landscape, the result of an exceptional wave of cold.

Undaunted, Van Gogh painted Landscape with Snow around February 24, as the snow was already melting, preparing for a flood. The areas of land now uncovered by the snow are rendered with patches of brown paint or with sections of canvas left exposed.

The relatively muted tonality of the painting stands in stark contrast to the bright lighting and intense colors of Van Gogh’s harvest paintings made in the summer of the same year.

Landscape with Snow Van Gogh

Here, however, is the indistinct, purple light of an impending snowstorm. A great admirer of Japanese art, Van Gogh went to Arles hoping to create an artistic community in an environment worthy of his oriental ideal. From the town, he wrote to his brother Theo:

For my part I foresee that other artists will want to see the color under a stronger sun in a more Japanese clarity of light.

The painting may well be inspired by the snow scenes frequent in the Japanese prints avidly collected by Van Gogh, but it also follows the conventions of seventeenth-century Dutch landscape painting in the gradation of colours, from the dark greens and browns that frame the first
plan to the blue of the sky in the distance, and to the road that runs diagonally away into the snowy landscape.

But unlike the Dutch landscapes with their wide skies, this work shows a Van Gogh focused on the ground stretching from
point where he is at the distant hut with its bright red roof.
The scene is painted from a perspective immersed in the landscape, on the same level as the man in the black hat and the bowlegged dog walking along the path.
