The Drinkers Vincent van Gogh (Dutch 1853–1890)

While institutionalized in Saint-Rémy, Van Gogh often copied works by artists he admired, which freed him from having to produce original compositions and allowed him to concentrate on interpretation. In his vibrant take on Honoré Daumier’s woodcarving "Physiology of Drinking," there is real pathos and a desperation in the earnest concentration with which the men drink, as if to quench a spiritual thirst.
