About this print

The artwork titled “First Steps (after Millet)” was created by the renowned Dutch painter Vincent Van Gogh in 1890. As a prime example of Post-Impressionism, this oil on canvas reflects the artist’s unique style through its vibrant, textured brushwork. Van Gogh painted this work while in Saint-rémy-de-provence, France, and it is now housed in The Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City, New York, United States.

Examining the canvas, one can observe a touching scene of familial affection and a significant moment in life: a child’s first steps. The setting is verdant and lively, with bold, expressive strokes that embody the Post-Impressionistic mastery of Van Gogh. The foreground showcases a kneeling man, extending his arms encouragingly toward a small child who, under the careful watch and support of a standing woman, takes tentative steps forward. The clothing of the figures is in striking blue and white, contrasting with the yellowish-green hues of the foliage surrounding the characters, creating a vivid tableau.
