The old tower of Nuenen, Vincent van Gogh
Van Gogh paints the tower under a heavily overcast sky. For the cloudy sky, he falls back on traditional landscape painting, particularly the work of Jacob van Ruisdael, John Constable and Charles Daubigny. Less prominent but also penetrating is the walled cemetery, whose dark wooden crosses rise above the wall.
