The painting Houses with Thatched Roofs by Vincent van Gogh captures a humble yet evocative Landscape scene, reflecting his Realism style. Van Gogh often used a Wash technique to create depth and texture, applying rich, expressive colors. This artwork was likely sketched initially with Pencil and ink on simple Paper, then developed into a vibrant scene. Sadly, Van Gogh died in the early morning of 29 July 1890, at the Auberge Ravoux, after suffering a depressive episode and a self-inflicted gunshot wound two days earlier.
