Plow In Field Painting by Van Gogh
Plow in Field Painting by Vincent van Gogh is matched to the Van Gogh Museum’s 1888 landscape Ploughed Fields (The Furrows), catalogued as F 574 / JH 1586. Painted in Arles in September 1888, the composition turns freshly worked agricultural land into a broad pattern of furrows, colour and directional brushwork. Van Gogh regarded the work as part of the group of large canvases he was creating for the Yellow House. The historic oil-on-canvas painting measures approximately 72.5 × 92.5 cm and belongs to the Van Gogh Museum in Amsterdam.
About Ploughed Fields – The Furrows
The product title “Plow In Field” is a commercial description. The historically established title for the Van Gogh Museum work is Ploughed Fields, often followed by the subtitle The Furrows.
Van Gogh painted it during one of the most productive periods of his life. By September 1888 he had lived in Arles for several months and was creating landscapes, night scenes, portraits and decorations for the Yellow House.
The Furrows Become the Composition
Ploughed land naturally creates repeated lines across the earth. Van Gogh uses those furrows to structure the picture, making the agricultural process itself responsible for much of the landscape’s visual rhythm.
The field is therefore more than a neutral setting. Its curves and divisions pull the eye across the canvas and emphasize the human shaping of the countryside.
Agriculture in Van Gogh’s Work
Van Gogh repeatedly painted sowers, harvesters, wheatfields and ploughed land. His interest in agricultural labour began during his Dutch years and continued throughout his career.
In Arles these familiar rural subjects were transformed by the stronger light and colour of Provence. Earth, vegetation and sky became opportunities for increasingly powerful colour relationships.
Part of the Yellow House Decoration
Van Gogh’s letters mention Ploughed Fields among important large canvases from the period. He considered framing several of these works for display in the Yellow House.
Other paintings discussed in the same context include The Yellow House, The Green Vineyard and Starry Night over the Rhône, placing the agricultural landscape firmly within his broader Arles project.
