Farmhouse in Provence

Farmhouse in Provence, painted in 1888 during Van Gogh’s time in Arles, captures the warmth and rustic charm of the southern French countryside. The scene features a cluster of sunlit stone buildings with red-tiled roofs, nestled among golden fields and bordered by lush greenery and cypress trees.

Van Gogh’s bold, expressive brushwork and vibrant palette of ochres, greens, and blues bring the landscape to life, emphasizing the harmony between human habitation and nature. The composition reflects his admiration for rural simplicity and the timeless rhythms of agrarian life. Farmhouse in Provence is a vivid tribute to the beauty, peace, and resilience of the Provençal land.
