Wheat field at sunset (1888) by Vincent van Gogh
In Sunset at Wheat Field, as in most of his paintings of wheat fields, the wheat is moving and restless, defined by swift dabs of paint that contrast with the still, dark and looming presence of the town on the horizon. He had become increasingly preoccupied by the expression of feelings through symbolic elements in his work, and here his first feelings of unrest in Arles are apparent through the dark town on the skyline.
