Painting of a dark-coated sower walking across a furrowed field under a large yellow sun, beside a leaning tree with pink blossoms.

The Sower III (version 1), Van Gogh, 1888

Painted in thick, rhythmic brushstrokes, a sower in a dark coat strides across a furrowed field at left, a sack at his waist. A gnarled tree with pink blossoms leans into a sky dominated by a large yellow sun, with a distant line of trees on the horizon.
