De zaaier, 1888 The sower

olieverf op doek / oil on canvas Vincent van Gogh Stichting

Van Gogh maakte diverse variaties op dit onderwerp: een zaaier in een veld, met een ondergaande zon. Opvallend in deze versie zijn de felle, onnatuurlijke kleuren en de indeling van het beeldvlak, waarbij de knoestige boom op de voorgrond het doek diagonaal doorsnijdt. Deze bijzondere compositie is waarschijnlijk geinspireerd op voorbeelden uit de Japanse prentkunst.

Van Gogh made a number of variations on a theme depicting a sower in front of a setting sun. Especially striking in this version are the bright, unnatural colours and the unusual composition, in which the knotty tree in the foreground constitutes a diagonal division of the canvas. His inspiration for this may have come from a Japanese print. inv. S29
