“Still Life with Clogs and Pots,” created by Vincent van Gogh in 1884 in Nuenen, Netherlands, is an oil on canvas masterpiece positioned within the Realism movement. This still life artwork is housed in the Centraal Museum in Utrecht, Netherlands.
The artwork presents a somber and intimate depiction of everyday objects meticulously arranged on a wooden surface. The composition showcases a juxtaposition of textures and shapes, featuring several clogs, a variety of pottery including a bottle, an earthenware jug, and a patterned ceramic vessel.
