Wheat Field with Partridge Postcard — Vincent van Gogh | Zolota Ptakha

Painted in the summer of 1887 on the outskirts of Paris, this small wheat field is one of the studies in which Van Gogh first hands the canvas over to outdoor light — the brushstroke softer, the palette opened up. A single partridge crosses the foreground. The postcard keeps a quietly underrated Paris-period picture in circulation.
