Original – Sorrow, a drawing by Vincent van Gogh produced in 1882 which depicts a 32-year-old pregnant woman, Clasina Maria Hoornik. It is mentioned in a number of letters by Van Gogh, and he appears to have thought highly of it, considering it an important work and describing the drawing as "the best figure I've drawn".
Reason
It's been what, 4 months since our last van Gogh? And look, this one's not a painting! (High resolution, scanned by Wikimedian in residence at the museum, featured on Commons, etc.)
