Crows in a Wheatfield

Crows in a Wheatfield
Crows in a Wheatfield (1890, Rijksmuseum Vincent van Gogh, Amsterdam, Netherlands) is the last painting that Dutch artist Vincent Van Gogh created before his suicide. His emotional intensity is conveyed through the thick, agitated brushstrokes and the ominous crows, which are symbols of death.
