Van Gogh
The Potato Eaters

i like this one because we went over in high school , we were fortunate enough to have a scholarly art teacher (and a onetime professional hockey player ! ) who pointed out the many nuances in the art pieces , in this one , the peasants have heads shaped and colored like .. potatos

At the transitional time of puberty, innocence mixes with knowledge to create magic. This child experiences the power of this magic for the first time.

I own very good prints of both of these. Daybreak was in my grandparents collection and Rotherhithe was my dad's.
