“Study for Worn Out” is been signed off with a simple “Vincent” and depicts an elderly labourer dressed in a waistcoat, trousers, and boots sitting on a wooden chair with his head in his hands.The sketch was made early in Van Gogh’s career in 1882, when he was 29-years-old, two years into his career as an artist. The Van Gogh Museum has verified the authenticity of the sketch. The drawing had been sitting in a Dutch family’s private collection for about a century.
He used a thick carpenter’s pencil and made the sketch on coarse watercolour paper. Van Gogh finished the drawing by rubbing pellets of bread on the lighter parts of the subject’s clothes, and then coated the drawing with a fixative made from milk and water. The entire sheet measures 48.8 cm by 30 cm.
The sketch is now on view alongside “Worn Out” at the Van Gogh Museum until January 2 where it will return to the private collection. This Van Gogh piece isn’t the only jaw-dropping discovery made in recent times. Just a week ago, not too far away from the Netherlands, a man in the Danish countrysidein a mine in Botswana in June earlier this year. The gemstone was unearthed as a joint venture between Debswana Diamond Company and Anglo American’s De Beer.
