About the Artwork

A Bent Worker above a Long Spade and Uneven Soil

This canvas print of Van Gogh’s Digger follows the worker’s bowed back toward the spade. His hands rest at different points along the handle. Pale and blue clothing contrasts with the dark trousers, while loose earth marks fill the close foreground.

Artwork and design

The long tool and bent body create a strong pair of sloping lines. A dark hedge separates the worker from the lighter upper sky. Small stones and uneven soil marks add detail beneath the broad shapes of the figure’s vest, sleeves and trousers.

About this design

Van Gogh made this Digger study at Etten in October 1881. Catalogued as F866/JH54, the original is in the Van Gogh Museum collection. Its bent worker, long spade and low background hedge identify this version among his early rural figure studies.

Rooms and interiors

Display this Van Gogh long-spade digger framed canvas in a home office, study or reading corner with muted blue and warm brown accents. A framed fine art print suits the hands and soil marks. Natural wood can complement the earthy working scene.
