Le moissonneur (d’après Millet), which features in Christie’s Impressionist and Modern Art Evening Sale in London on 27 June, was among the first works that Van Gogh painted as he recovered. At that point access to Saint-Paul-de-Mausole’s grounds — much less to human subjects — was forbidden, which is to say, the scope for new work was limited.

Van Gogh’s response was to copy a set of prints he possessed — of work by arguably his favourite artist, Jean-François Millet — adapting them into paintings of his own. Le moissonneur (d’après Millet), like the Frenchman’s original on which it is based, depicts a reaper at work, sweeping his scythe in the fields.

In 1852, Millet had produced a series of 10 drawings, called Les Travaux des champs, of quietly dignified peasant figures engaged in various harvest-time labours. Van Gogh would paint all of them — seven of these are now in the Van Gogh Museum in Amsterdam; Le moissonneur — which can be translated as The Reaper — is one of just three in private hands.

Vincent van Gogh (1853-90) was a Dutch Post-Impressionist painter whose work had a far-reaching influence on 20th-century art. In just over a decade, he produced more than 2,100 artworks but received little recognition during his lifetime. Van Gogh was unsuccessful during his lifetime and was considered a madman and a failure. He became famous after his suicide, and exists in the public imagination as the quintessential misunderstood and tortured genius artist.
