All his adult life Van Gogh identified with working men and women; the industrial workers, servants and farm labourers - even prostitutes - whose rights were least considered by the middle and upper classes but whose labour was demanded unquestioning. In 1876 Van Gogh became very keen to obtain 'a job between clergyman and missionary among working people in the suburbs of London', and to that end he took a job as an assistant to a Methodist preacher in Isleworth, a Thames-side village west of London.
