We explore Vincent van Gogh’s profound fascination with wheatfields, a recurring subject in over fifty of his iconic artworks.
Discover how his en plein air approach allowed him to capture the vibrant energy of nature, as he physically anchored his easel in the landscape to translate the movement of the wind onto his canvas.
We’ll delve into his masterful use of the impasto technique, which brought his golden fields to life with thick, tactile layers of paint.
But these wheatfields were more than just scenery—they were symbolic metaphors for the cycle of life and the human condition.
Through historical context, we’ll examine how his struggles and prolific output, particularly during his time in Arles, intensified his use of brilliant yellows and cemented his legacy of artistic resilience.
Join us as we uncover the emotional depth and enduring beauty behind van Gogh’s golden landscapes.
