🥔 Still Life with Potatoes – Vincent van Gogh (1889)

By Alpha Reproduction – Hand-painted reproduction, humble and luminous

🍽️ A sincere tribute to simple things

In Still Life with Potatoes, Van Gogh pays tribute to the ordinary. A simple plate of potatoes becomes, under his brush, an object of contemplation. Far from the splendor of classical still lifes, this canvas speaks to us of truth, rusticity, and the deep connection between the artist and everyday life. The objects are there, raw, essential, and yet of great dignity.

🕰️ A return to the roots through a still life

Painted in Arles in 1889, this work echoes Van Gogh's beginnings, notably his famous painting The Potato Eaters (1885). But here, the style has evolved: brighter, more colorful, more assertive. In this Arles version, Van Gogh blends his past as a painter of the people with his new chromatic approach. A plate, some vegetables, and yet a whole world.

🎨 Visual analysis: thick textures and unexpected colors

The yellow bowl contrasts with the blue background, and the potatoes, far from being uniformly brown, show violet, blue, and red reflections. The brushstroke is bold, almost sculptural. The textures are suggested by the layering of thick coats, giving weight, volume, and an almost tactile presence to these ordinary vegetables.

💭 Emotional reading: the nobility of the everyday

Van Gogh sees in these potatoes much more than just food: he sees a symbol of work, earth, and simplicity. This work evokes silent recognition towards everyday objects, the beauty of "little" when seen with intensity. It is a still life imbued with life, where each element seems to have a soul.
