Wheat Field with a Lark is an 1887 oil on canvas landscape painting by Vincent van Gogh, measuring about 53.7 by 65.2 centimetres and held today by the Van Gogh Museum in Amsterdam. It shows a partially harvested wheat field under a sky patterned with light clouds, with poppies and cornflowers scattered among the stalks and a lark taking flight toward the upper left of the composition. Painted while van Gogh was living in Paris, the work is one of several landscape studies from that period and is catalogued by the museum under the alternate title Wheat Field with Partridge, though it is commonly known in English by its present name.
