The Sower | Vincent van Gogh Postcard

The Sower (1888) by Vincent van Gogh is a powerful Post-Impressionist painting that depicts a farmer sowing seeds in a vast field under a radiant yellow sky. The artwork reflects Van Gogh's admiration for rural labour and his fascination with the cycles of nature. The vivid colour palette of golden yellows, deep blues, and rich greens, along with the expressive brushstrokes, creates a dynamic and symbolic scene. The oversized sun dominates the sky, casting a spiritual glow over the figure and landscape, imbuing the scene with a sense of hope and renewal.
