Pastures in bloom by Vincent Van Gogh

In this picture, the artist depicts grass-covered flowering pastures, which attracted his attention with its variegated and multicolored. The author chooses for the composition a small piece of the field to show exactly what he admired.

The entire space of the canvas seems to be filled with a solid carpet of herbs and flowers. The artist avoids building a composition, simply applying to the canvas what he sees in front of him. Vertical movements of the brush create and emphasize the texture of the field, covered with fresh freshly appeared grass and spring field flowers.

In this picture, the full-color gift of Van Gogh is fully manifested. For the image of grass, he uses almost all shades of green, from dark to light and sparkling, from cool and airy to warm yellowish. Primroses are also full of all the colors of the rainbow.

Gently pink, light blue, sunny yellow spots are harmoniously distributed throughout the space of the picture, so that the picturesque surface seems to shimmer and sparkle. Paints, despite the riotous variety, harmoniously combined on the canvas. Harmony is supplemented by bright joy that inspired the artist to create this canvas and which he perfectly managed to express in his work.
