A Girl in the Street, Two Coaches in the Background

A Girl in the Street, Two Coaches in the Background (F13, JH179) is an oil painting by Vincent van Gogh. It is one of his very early works, painted in The Hague in August 1882, at a time when his brother Theo was encouraging him to paint landscapes in colour, rather than drawing figures. It is an early work to bear his "Vincent" signature, suggesting he was happy with the effect.
