Vincent van Gogh, The Potato Eaters, Impressionism, 1885, Rijksmuseum Vincent van Gogh, Amsterdam, Netherlands.

Considered Van Gogh's first masterpiece.

Of this Van Gogh wrote to his brother Theo: "I have tried to emphasize that those people, eating their potatoes in the lamplight have dug the earth with those very hands they put in the dish, and so it speaks of manual labour, and how they have honestly earned their food".
