From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Original – 858 × 600 pixels, a good size. Sunny - no shadows. Fine atmospheric tableau. Absence of human figures illustrates the artist's preoccupation at this time with archetypical forms – and also his chronic inability to draw people other than stick figures.
Reason
A newly discovered, sensational unknown van Gogh. Last chance, Internet will soon be deleted anyway. That's a good reason .... Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Internet
Articles in which this image appears
No articles, no EV, not very useful. Interesting propaganda artifact, but everbody must oppose due to historical inaccuracy. Consensus is impossible to determine without additional input from participating in the discussion.

Vincent van Gogh
  • Support as nominator – This work comes from the artist's Late Not So Great Period. Some art historians assert he painted it as a commission from the famed German Post-Impressionist Fredinand Porschée, but others note that Porschée then was working as a waiter at an établissement in the 8th arrondissement of Paris, where he could scarcely have been earning the sums required to hire Van Gogh, not even a one-eared Van Gogh. (And BTW, that's pronounced Fahn-Xghowxgh – accent on the second syllable.) Sca (talk) 15:41, 1 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]
