Olive trees with the Alpilles in the background - Vincent Van Gogh
280+ avis vérifiés
Vincent Van Gogh, in his painting "Oliviers avec les Alpilles en arrière-plan" (Olive trees with the Alpilles in the background), paints a pastoral scene full of dynamism and colour. This painting, produced during his stay in Saint-Rémy-de-Provence in 1889, is in the tradition of Post-Impressionism.
In the lower half of the canvas, an olive orchard speckled with green and yellow catches the eye. The twisting, energetic olive trunks bring a sense of movement to the whole, like the heartbeat of the land of Provence. On the horizon, the Alpilles mountains rise up, majestic and soothing, creating a dividing line between the tumult of the vegetation and the calm of the sky.
It is above this natural boundary that a turbulent sky unfolds, where Van Gogh's swirling brushstrokes express the vast expanse of the sky and its constant metamorphosis. By playing on the contrast between the fertility of the orchard and the immensity of the sky, Van Gogh perfectly illustrates the dialectic between man and nature, the small scale of the earth faced with the infinity of the heavens.
