*** About The Carpenter's Yard: Created during Vincent van Gogh’s stay in Nuenen between 1883 and 1885, "The Carpenter's Yard" is a striking example of his early work focused on the lives of peasants and workers. The painting is executed in oil on canvas, showcasing Van Gogh’s transitioning style that prominently features earth tones and a textured application of paint. This piece visually narrates the tale of hard labor and simple living, subjects that deeply moved Van Gogh during his formative years as an artist. His technique in this artwork includes a use of perspective that draws viewers into the yard, making them part of the scene. The inspiration likely came from Van Gogh’s profound desire to convey the dignity and toil of working-class people. Presently, the painting is held in a private collection, rarely seen by the public but remains a significant piece illustrating Van Gogh’s early artistic concerns and his affinity towards the working class.
