Daikon, Carrots, and Potatoes
gouache on paper
35.6 x 50.8 cm (14" x 20")


Is that a daikon, parsnip, or a turnip in the painting?

I'm not sure. This was painted a couple of years ago, and I can't remember which vegetable it was.


Who was the nineteenth century French artist, who ate so many potatoes when he was a student, that he dedicated the rest of his life to making enough money not to ever have to eat potatoes again?
