"The Thorn" is an oil painting by the British artist Henry Herbert La Thangue (1859–1929), who was known for his pastoral and rural scenes that often depicted agricultural laborers. La Thangue was associated with the Newlyn School and later the Impressionist movement, and his work is characterized by its use of light and attention to the details of rural life.

Created in 1890, "The Thorn" exemplifies La Thangue's commitment to painting en plein air (outdoors) and his interest in capturing the effects of natural light on the landscape and figures. The painting depicts a young peasant girl who appears to be removing a thorn from her foot, a simple yet poignant moment that reflects the everyday hardships and realities of rural existence. The subject matter is typical of La Thangue's focus on the dignity of labor and the lives of country folk.

The composition of "The Thorn" is notable for its naturalistic style and the way in which La Thangue integrates the figure within the landscape, suggesting a harmony between humans and nature. The use of light and shadow, as well as the loose, impressionistic brushwork, contribute to the sense of immediacy and the fleeting quality of the moment being depicted.

"The Thorn" is considered an important work in La Thangue's oeuvre, as it encapsulates the themes and techniques that he is most celebrated for. The painting is held in a public collection, allowing it to be viewed and appreciated by audiences interested in British Impressionism and the depiction of rural life at the turn of the 20th century.
