The wheat field works demonstrate his progression as an artist from the drab Wheat Sheaves made in 1885 in the Netherlands to the colorful, dramatic paintings from Arles, Saint-Rémy and Auvers-sur-Oise of rural France.

He drew everything from legendary tales featuring dragons and knights, to explicit scenes of sex and debauchery.
