About Enclosed Field

The artwork, titled “Enclosed Field,” was created by Vincent van Gogh in 1889 in Saint-Rémy-de-Provence, France. It belongs to the Post-Impressionism art movement and is categorized under the genre of sketch and study.

The artwork portrays a field enclosed by a fence, with a varied landscape that includes irregular patches of vegetation scattered across rolling hills. The use of simple, expressive lines and crosshatching captures the texture and movement of the natural environment. The depiction of light and shadow, although minimalistic, brings a sense of depth and perspective to the composition. This study reflects van Gogh’s ability to convey emotion and atmosphere through his distinctive style, even in preliminary sketches.
