*** About Grazing Cattle in Summer Pasture: Painted in 1883, during Van Gogh's early period in the Netherlands, this piece illustrates his transitional exploration into expressionism. Unlike his later works, which are characterized by swirling night skies and intense color contrasts, this painting employs a more reserved palette and shows his initial experimentation with capturing movement and emotional atmosphere. Van Gogh’s inspiration came largely from his desire to convey the simplicity and beauty of the rural landscapes that surrounded him, depicting the essential and often overlooked aspects of agrarian life. The painting is a declaration of his deep connection to nature and the ordinary lives of the peasants among whom he lived. Currently, it is held in a renowned museum collection dedicated to the preservation of post-impressionist art. However, the specific location is often not disclosed publicly to ensure the artwork's security.
