From The Metropolitan Museum of Art NY:
This painting from February/March 1885, with its restricted palette of dark tones, coarse facture, and blocky drawing, is typical of the works Van Gogh painted in Nuenen the year before he left Holland for France. His peasant studies of 1885
culminated in his first important painting, The Potato Eaters (Van Gogh Museum, Amsterdam).
