A Dutch museum on Thursday unveiled a previously unknown work by Vincent van Gogh: 'Worn Out', in which an old man sits in a chair with his head in his hands.
The work can be dated with unusual precision to the last weeks of November 1882, Meenendorp said, because of two letters Van Gogh wrote on November 24 of that year. It was a period of relative stability for the artist while he was living with a woman in The Hague.
“What a fine sight an old working man makes, in his patched bombazine suit with his bald head,” Vincent wrote.
