Gnarled olive trees stand in red-orange soil under a streaked sky

A row of gnarled olive trees with twisting purple-brown trunks and silvery-green foliage stands in a field of red-orange earth streaked with blue shadow. Above, the sky is built from agitated strokes of pale yellow-green crossed with hatched pink and red clouds. The brushwork throughout is short and directional, giving both ground and foliage a vibrating, textured surface.

Vincent van Gogh (1853–1890) painted for barely ten years and produced some 2,100 works, most of them in the last two. After early dark canvases of Dutch peasant life he moved to Paris in 1886, absorbed Impressionism and Japanese prints, and in Arles and Saint-Rémy arrived at the thick, directional brushwork and saturated colour that carry his sunflowers, cypresses and night skies. He sold almost nothing in his lifetime. His paintings are held by the Van Gogh Museum in Amsterdam, the Musée d'Orsay and the Metropolitan Museum of Art.
