A very close point of view
Van Gogh enlarges the figure until it mentally overflows from the small format. The spectator is almost at the height of the field, behind the harvester.

Vincent van Gogh · September 1889 · Saint-Rémy-de-Provence, France
Seen from behind, a harvester advances in a yellow field under an almost pure blue sky. Its massive body and the long curve of the scythe give this little painting after Millet immediate physical tension.
Look at the work
The figure fills almost the entire height. The yellow hat, light shirt and ocher pants stand out against the blue of the sky, while the spread legs give the gesture a solid foundation.
The scythe arcs down to the right and meets the yellow lines of the field. On the horizon, a second tiny figure and a few sheaves are enough to extend the space behind the worker.
The harvester is not a detail of the landscape: his silhouette becomes the axis of the composition, and the curve of the scythe transforms the work into continuous movement.
Composition, touch and color
This oil on canvas measuring 43.3 × 24.3 cm bears the references F688/JH1783. Painted in September 1889, it now belongs to a private collection.
Van Gogh enlarges the figure until it mentally overflows from the small format. The spectator is almost at the height of the field, behind the harvester.
The handle and blade extend the inclination of the shoulders. Their curve directly connects the body to the cut wheat and makes the effort of the rotation visible.
The field and the sky are separated into two very clear zones. The light silhouette can be seen on the blue, while its legs anchor in the yellows and greens of the ground.
Documented benchmarks
The Harvester F688/JH1783 was painted in Saint-Rémy in September 1889. It measures 43.3 × 24.3 cm and is in a private collection.
The pose comes from a print reproducing a composition by Millet. Van Gogh retained the subject but invented a colorful range specific to the light of Provence.
Without an original painting in front of him, Van Gogh treated his covers like a performer: he transposed the values of the print into oppositions of yellow, blue and green.
This version shows the worker from behind with his scythe. It should not be confused with the Harvester F687 kept at the Van Gogh Museum.
Your reproduction
The copy must restore the silhouette seen from behind, the precise curve of the scythe, the luminous yellow of the field, the deep blue of the sky and the small figure placed on the horizon.
