About the original work
Here Van Gogh painted one of his favorite subjects: large flowering branches against a blue sky. Because the almond tree blooms early in spring, it is a symbol of new life. For the subject, the sharp outlines and the placement of the tree in the picture plane, Van Gogh was inspired by Japanese prints.
About the Artist
Vincent van Gogh was a Dutch post-impressionist painter who is considered one of the greatest artists of all time. Born in 1853 in the Netherlands, van Gogh started his career as an art dealer before deciding to pursue painting at the age of 27. Despite struggling with mental illness and poverty throughout his life, van Gogh created some of the most celebrated works of art in history, including “Starry Night,” “Sunflowers,” and “The Potato Eaters.” His use of bold colors and expressive brushstrokes influenced countless artists and movements that followed, making him a seminal figure in the development of modern art. Van Gogh died in 1890 at the age of 37, but his legacy continues to inspire and captivate art lovers around the world today.
