About the Item

Title: Vincent van Gogh – Sien on Her Deathbed – 1928 Portfolio Print Description: This 1928 print is a reproduction of 'Sien on Her Deathbed', a deeply emotional drawing by Vincent van Gogh created in 1883 during his Dutch period. The composition depicts Sien Hoornik, a woman with whom Van Gogh had a close relationship, lying in bed, seemingly in her final moments. Her hands are clasped together on her chest, her eyes are closed, and her face is serene yet marked by suffering. A single candle burns beside her, illuminating the stark contrast between the darkness of the room and the pale glow of her figure. Executed in charcoal and pencil, Van Gogh’s use of dramatic shading and rough, expressive strokes heightens the raw intensity of the scene. The figure’s form is rendered with great care, emphasizing her frailty, while the surrounding darkness isolates her, intensifying the sense of solitude and finality. The scattered papers in the foreground add an element of narrative, hinting at a life recently lived, now fading away. Van Gogh was profoundly influenced by Jean-François Millet and the Realist tradition, often portraying moments of human hardship with honesty and compassion. This drawing stands as one of his most poignant explorations of mortality, foreshadowing the deep emotional expression that would later define his paintings. The intimate and sorrowful nature of the piece makes it a striking example of his ability to convey profound human experiences through simple, yet powerful, imagery. Condition Summary: The print is in good condition, with minor signs of aging along the edges. Matting and Framing Tips: A neutral or off-white mat will highlight the delicate contrast in the drawing, while a black or dark wood frame will enhance its dramatic tone. UV-protective glass is recommended for long-term preservation.
