Vincent van Gogh Smoker Le Fumeur 1888 Oil canvas
Vincent van Gogh: The Smoker (Le Fumeur), Vincent van Gogh, 1888, Oil on canvas, During his stay in Arles, a small town in the rural south of France, Van Gogh concentrated on painting the towns inhabitants--including the local mailman (Room 2) and the farm workers whose simple lifestyle he admired and idealized. Here, Van Gogh depicts a peasant smoking a pipe. The figure wears a humble coat comprised of loose, muddy strokes; ruddy cheeks suggest his work outdoors. Above his shoulder, a few horizontal dashes indicate puffs of smoke; thick, unblended marks describe an ear. Despite these moments of near abstraction, Van Gogh maintains an astounding attention to naturalistic detail, paying attention to the way a person really looks and behaves. Note how the mans mouth is slightly clenched to hold the pipe; and how his moustache is uneven rather than perfectly trimmed. Overall: 24 3/4 x 18 3/4 in. (62.9 x 47.6 cm)

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases Vincent van Gogh's masterpiece, "The Smoker (Le Fumeur)" painted in 1888. During his time in the picturesque town of Arles, located in the rural south of France, Van Gogh found inspiration in capturing the essence of its inhabitants. In this particular piece, he portrays a humble peasant enjoying a momentary respite while smoking his pipe. The figure is depicted wearing a simple coat that Van Gogh skillfully brings to life through loose and muddy brushstrokes. The man's ruddy cheeks hint at his laborious work outdoors, adding authenticity to the scene. Above his shoulder, delicate horizontal dashes symbolize puffs of smoke emanating from the pipe held between clenched teeth. Notably, Van Gogh's artistic style veers towards abstraction with unblended marks describing an ear. Despite these abstract elements, Van Gogh maintains an astonishing attention to naturalistic detail throughout the painting. He captures subtle nuances such as the slightly clenched mouth necessary for holding a pipe and even includes an unevenly trimmed mustache on the subject's face. Measuring approximately 24 3/4 x 18 3/4 inches (62.9 x 47.6 cm), this print allows viewers to appreciate Van Gogh's remarkable ability to observe and depict human behavior realistically while infusing it with his unique artistic vision.
