The early work of Vincent van Gogh composed a group of paintings and drawings made by Vincent van Gogh when he was 27 and 28, in 1881 and 1882, his first two years of serious artistic exploration. Over a two-year period, Van Gogh lives in several places. He left Brussels, where he studied for about a year in 1881, to return to his parents' home in Etten (North Brabant), where he made a study of some of the city's inhabitants. In January 1882, Van Gogh went to The Hague where he studied with his cousin, Anton Mauve, and founded a studio, which was funded by Mauve. During the ten years of Van Gogh's artistic career from 1881 to 1890, Vincent's brother Theo will be a source of continuing financial inspiration and support; His first financial support began in Vincent's 1880 funding when he lived in Brussels.
In 1882, Van Gogh had an offer for a painting commission in The Hague, but the paintings, now considered masterpieces, were unacceptable. Van Gogh started mainly drawing and painting with watercolors. Under Mauve's guidance, Van Gogh began painting with oil in 1882. Van Gogh's fascinating subject was a working class or a peasant, inspired by the works of Jean-FranÃÆ'§§ois Millet and others.

Early adulthood
In July 1869, Van Gogh's uncle, "Cent" Van Gogh, helped him get into a position with art dealer Goupil & amp; Cie in The Hague. After his training, in June 1873, Goupil moved him to London, where he stayed at 87 Hackford Road, Brixton, and worked in Messrs. Goupil & amp; Co, 17 Southampton Street. These are happy moments for her; he succeeds at work and, at the age of 20, gets more from his father. He fell in love with his landlady daughter, Eugenie Loyer, who refused. He is increasingly isolated and insistent about religion. Her father and uncle sent her to Paris to work for a dealer. However, he gets upset because the art is treated as a commodity, a fact that is real to the customer. On April 1, 1876, his work was stopped.
Van Gogh explores his interest in ministry to serve people who work. He studied for a while in the Netherlands but his enthusiasm and self-imposed asceticism made him in a short-term position in lay ministry. He becomes somewhat offended and rejects the establishment of the church, but finds an entertaining and important personal spirituality for him. In 1879, he made a change to his life and found he could express "love to God and man" through painting.
In 1880, Van Gogh wrote of his desire to be a useful artist, "To try to understand the true meaning of what a great artist, a serious master, tells us in their work, which leads to God, a man writes or narrates it in a book, the other, in a picture. "After moving to Brussels, Van Gogh decided to study on his own, rather than at the arts academy, often in the company of Dutch artist Anthon van Rappard. It was at this point that his brother Theo, working as an art agent at Paris Goupil & amp; The Cie branch began sending her money for support, a practice that continued throughout the life of the brother.
Etten, Drenthe and The Hague
In April 1881, Van Gogh moved to the village of Etten (Noord-Brabant) in Holland with his parents where he continued to draw, often using his neighbors as the subject. Throughout the summer he spent a lot of time walking and talking to his recently-widowed cousin, Kee Vos-Stricker. She is the daughter of her mother's sister and Johannes Stricker, who has shown warmth to the artist. Although Van Gogh wanted to marry Stricker, given his firm rejection: "No, never, never" (niet, nooit, nimmer ) and his inability to support himself financially, marriage makes no sense.. Van Gogh was deeply hurt. On that Christmas he had a big fight with his father, to refuse the prize money, and went to The Hague.
In January 1882, he settled in The Hague where he called his cousin-in-law, painter Anton Mauve (1838-1988). Mauve introduced him to paint in oil and watercolor and lent him money to set up a studio; But both soon fell, probably because of drawing problems from the cast. Mauve seems to suddenly become cold against Van Gogh and not return his letters, Van Gogh suspects that Mauve does not approve of his domestic arrangement with an alcoholic prostitute, Clasina Maria "Sien" Hoornik (1850-1904) and she is a girl. He had met Sien towards the end of January, when he had a five-year-old daughter and was pregnant. On July 2, Sien gave birth to a baby boy, Willem. Van Gogh's father put great pressure on his son to leave Sien and his sons. Vincent was initially challenged in the face of opposition.
The artist van Gogh artist, Cornelis, commissioned 20 images of city ink, completed by artists at the end of May. In June, he spent three weeks in a hospital suffering from gonorrhea. That summer he started painting with oil. In the autumn of 1883, after a year together, he left Sien and his two children. Van Gogh moved to the Dutch province of Drenthe, in northern Netherlands. In December, driven by loneliness, he went to live with his parents who were living in Nuenen, North Brabant.
Development as artist
Van Gogh drew and painted watercolors while at school; some of these works survive and authorship is challenged on some of those who do so. When he was committed to art as an adult, he started at the ground level by copying the Cours de Dessin, edited by Charles Bargue and published by Goupil & amp; Cie.In two years he started looking for a task. In the spring of 1882, his uncle, Cornelis Marinus - owner of the famous contemporary art gallery in Amsterdam - asked him to draw The Hague. Van Gogh's work did not prove to be equivalent to his uncle's expectations. Marinus offers a second commission, this time determining the subject matter in detail, but again disappointed with the result. Nevertheless, Van Gogh survives. He improved the lighting of his studio by installing variable windows and experimenting with various drawing materials. For over a year he worked for single leaders - a meticulous study in "Black and White", which at that time only gave him criticism. Today, they are recognized as the first masterpiece.
Peasant genre
The "peasant genre" associated with the Realism movement that greatly influenced Van Gogh began in the 1840s with the works of Jean-FranÃÆ'§§ois Millet, Jules Breton, and others. He describes the works of Millet and Breton that have religious significance, "something high," and describes it as "the sound of wheat".
Throughout Van Gogh's adult life, he is interested in serving others, especially manual workers. As a young man, he serves and serves coal miners in Borinage, Belgium who seem to make it close to his calling as a missionary or minister for the workers.
A common denominator in his favorite writer and artist is the sentimental treatment of the poor and oppressed. Referring to the painting of a farmer written by Van Gogh to his brother Theo: "How can I paint what I really love?" He lifts the worker up to a high standard on how he should be dedicated to painting, "One must do with conviction, with certain assurance that one does the natural thing, like the peasant who rides his plow... (the one who) drags him. If a man has no horse, he is his own horse. "
In 1885, Van Gogh described the paintings of peasants as the most important contribution to modern art. See also Peasant Character Study (Van Gogh series).

On a blustery day, Van Gogh set up horses and painted "plein-air" in a beach resort, Scheveningen, near The Hague to paint Sea Scene in Scheveningen (F4 ). While Impressionists are often given credit for painting outside, they are not the first to do so. However, most sketches are in place and work on painting in a studio. In this case, Van Gogh struggled with the strong winds sending sand grains into the thick paint. Although most of the sand is already peeling off, there are still some grains of sand tangled in the paint layers. The turbulent weather is well illustrated by a sea covered with white, threatening skies and windblown flags. The painting was stolen from the Van Gogh Museum in December 2002 and was found in Naples, Italy in September 2016.
From a Van Gogh study for Girls in a Wood or Girls in White in the Woods, he commented on how much he enjoyed the work and explained how he wanted to trigger the viewer's senses and how they can experience the painting: "Another study in wood is a couple of large green beech stems on a stretch of land covered with dry sticks, and a small figure of a white girl.It's a great difficulty to keep it clear, between the stems that stand at different distances - and the place and the relative part of the stems change in perspective - to make it so that one can breathe and walk in it, and to make you smell the smell of wood. "
In Girls in the Forest (F8a) the girl was overshadowed by large oak trees. The painting may have reminded Van Gogh of the time in his youth, he fled to the Zundert Forest to escape from his family.
In November 1882, Van Gogh began drawing individuals to describe various types of characters from the working class,
In contrast to the character study written by Van Gogh to his brother Theo in November 1882 that he had drawn portraits of Jozef Block (F993), a street book dealer who is sometimes called the "Binnenhof outdoor librarian". The work is detailed in pencils with watercolors and lime. Currently very rarely Van Gogh uses color, because he finds it hard to work.
