Painting of a sower in dark clothes walking across a field under a large yellow sun, with a leaning tree on the right and a green-yellow sky.

The Sower III (version 2) — Sunset Sower by Van Gogh

A dark-clothed sower strides across a diagonal field toward the lower left, scattering seed under a huge yellow sun. A gnarled, leaning tree dominates the right, its trunk and branches rendered in thick, swirling brushstrokes against a green-yellow sky.
