Van Gogh included skeletons in another work from his Antwerp period, a sketch of a "Hanging skeleton and cat". [3] In 1887–88, van Gogh painted two more paintings with skulls, the only other works of his (besides a drawing from the same period) to use skulls as a motif. [2] The work measures 32 by 24.5 centimetres (12.6 in × 9.6 in).
