  • Catalogues raisonnés:
  • F82: Faille, Jacob Baart de la (1970) [1928] The Works of Vincent van Gogh. His Paintings and Drawings, Amsterdam: J.M. Meulenhoff, no. 82 .

  • Created in Nuenen, The Netherlands.
    "By first practising a striking drawning technique, Van Gogh was able to employ a robust manner in the painting to convey in the hands and heads the character that resulted from the peasant's hard life. [...] Van Gogh's accomplishments as a draughtsman are truly translated into oil paint here." (quoted source, p.36, by Sjaar van Heugten).
  • The tiles (see "Source" for URL) were assembled in Mathematica 9. The code used was as follows:
(* Path to directory where tiles are stored *)
TilesPath = "C:\\Users\\You\\Documents\\Wikipedia articles\\Vincent van Gogh\\Potato Eaters\\Tiles\\";
(* initialise row and column variables *)
m = 0;
n = 0;
(* Get tiles into m by n table *)
Tiles = Table[Import[TilesPath <> "4-" <> ToString[m] <> "-" <> ToString[n] <> ".jpg"], {n, 0, 9}, {m, 0, 13}];
(* Assemble Tiles *)
Assembled = ImageAssemble[Tiles];
(* Export file *)
Export[TilesPath <> "Assembled.jpg", Assembled];
