Abstract

This is among Vincent van Gogh's most popular paintings. Vincent painted this in Arles in May 1888, three months after leaving Paris where he had painted more than 200 pictures. He had moved to Arles because he was attracted by the bright light of southern France and the warmth of the colors. At the time of this painting he was already living in the right wing of his famous "The Yellow House" which he painted in September.
