“Sheet with Figures at a Table, a Sower, Clogs, etc” is an artwork by Vincent van Gogh, created in 1890 in Saint-Rémy-de-Provence, France. This piece, executed in chalk and pencil on paper, aligns with the Post-Impressionism art movement and is categorized under the genre of sketch and study. Presently, it is housed at the Van Gogh Museum in Amsterdam, Netherlands.
The artwork is a compilation of various sketches, featuring figures engaged in different activities and arrangements. At the top left, there is a depiction of figures seated at a table, engrossed in their own tasks. The middle section portrays a man carrying a container, possibly a sower, indicated by his posture and tools. Surrounding him are arrangements of clogs, carefully sketched to capture their unique shapes and forms. Scattered throughout the paper are additional sketches, including small studies of heads and other objects, showcasing Van Gogh’s meticulous attention to detail and his exploration of everyday themes and subjects in his preparatory work.
