Vincent van Gogh

Almond Blossom

US$ 624.00

Almond Blossom looks straight up into the branches of an almond tree in flower, white and pale-pink blooms scattered across a flat expanse of turquoise sky. There is no horizon and no ground — only branches cutting across the frame, a device borrowed directly from Japanese printmaking. Almond trees flower earliest in spring, and Van Gogh painted them as a symbol of new life. This reproduction brings that burst of quiet optimism into your space.

Artist

Vincent van Gogh (1853–1890) painted for barely a decade, producing most of his best-known work in the last two years of his life in the south of France. He drew heavily on Japanese woodblock prints, borrowing their bold outlines, flat colour and off-centre compositions. He painted Almond Blossom in February 1890 at Saint-Rémy as a gift for his brother Theo and sister-in-law Jo, who had just had a son and named him Vincent after his uncle. It remained the canvas closest to the family’s heart, and that nephew went on to found the Van Gogh Museum.
