EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases Vincent van Gogh's poignant artwork titled "Sorrow, 1882". Created using pencil and wash on paper, this post-impressionist masterpiece depicts a young woman in a state of deep mourning. With her head down and seated alone, the sorrowful figure exudes an overwhelming sense of sadness. Van Gogh's meticulous attention to detail is evident in his portrayal of the woman's long black hair cascading down her back. The artist skillfully captures the mournful expression on her face, emphasizing the negative concept that permeates the entire composition. The use of pencil drawing and wash techniques adds depth and texture to this late 19th-century piece. Mounted on paper, it further enhances its artistic appeal. Van Gogh's signature can be seen at the side, confirming his authorship. This neo-impressionist artwork explores themes such as grief, solitude, and vulnerability through its representation of a naked female form. The artist masterfully conveys emotions through posture and facial expression while maintaining a high level of realism. As one gazes upon this thought-provoking image captured by Bridgeman Images for Fine Art Finder, they are transported into van Gogh's world where beauty intertwines with melancholy. It serves as a testament to his exceptional talent as both a painter and an artist who delved deep into human emotions to create timeless works that continue to resonate with viewers today.
