Farmhouse in Provence
by GOGH, Vincent van, Oil on canvas, 46 x 61 cm
Catalogue numbers: F 565, JH 1443.
After finishing the the series of blossoming orchards, van Gogh started on a new, large-scale series in the summer of 1888. He depicted details of the Crau region, farms and wheat fields during harvest. During June he depicted the Provence harvest on three large-scale paintings and six smaller oil studies. The present painting is supposed to be one of the earliest of the six smaller studies.
