जेंव्हा व्हॅन घो आधीचे दुसऱ्याचे चित्र कॉपी करत नाहीत तर अनुवादतात... Jean-François Millet, Vincent Van Gogh

"During his stay in the psychiatric hospital in Saint-Rémy, Vincent received a series of prints from Theo after paintings by Jean-François Millet. That was a French painter he greatly admired. Van Gogh used one of those prints as his model for this work. On 3 November 1889 Vincent described the painting as follows:

 “The evening is in a range of violets and soft lilacs, with light from the lamp pale citron, then the orange glow of the fire and the man in red ochre. You will see it. It seems to me that doing painting after these Millet drawings is much rather to translate them into another language than to copy them.”"
