Notes This was probably the sketch sent to van Rappard mentioned in Letter 176. Van Rappard criticised it as not a study of a sower, but rather of a man posing as a sower. Van Gogh agreed but defended himself thus: "I consider my current studies, however, to be studies from a model, they have no pretension of being anything else. Only in a year or two will I get down to making a sower who is sowing, I agree with you there." He made good his promise the following year at The Hague with studies such as F852 (File:Van Gogh - Der Sämann5.jpeg) and F853
