Blossoming Almond Tree hand-painted replica in oil on canvas
Van Gogh Studio is located in Amsterdam, near the Van Gogh museum where we can study the original works. Our paintings are all painted in oil on canvas by mainly Dutch artists who have studied Van Gogh's technique, including brushstrokes, color mixing, atmosphere and the rhythm of painting.
Springtime and Awakening
Van Gogh was attracted to spring, and the
blossoming of plants and
flowers. He believed this to be a truly special time, it represented awakening and hope, something Van Gogh too held onto in his life, often wanting to grow and develop into a more spiritually enlightened man. It is no surprise that with the birth of his nephew he turned to this imagery.
Painted for Vincent Van Gogh
The work was painted for Van Gogh’s newly born nephew, and namesake, Vincent Van Gogh. His brother Theo deciding to name his son after Van Gogh shows again how deeply his love and respect ran.
Not only was he Van Gogh’s financial supporter for most of the artists life, he also was the one that kept encouraging him even when Van Gogh himself was losing belief he would ever be able to make any money from his work. Van Gogh was very moved by his brothers choice and proud that he may share his name with another.
An Entrancing Work
Inspired by
Japanese woodcut art Van Gogh created this beautiful work, one that still manages to entrance the viewer with a deep and mysterious beauty. The
blue sky in the background itself becomes abstract in its expansiveness by giving no clear perspective on the surroundings. Instead the painting becomes symbolic and the viewer, if not careful, can be lost in it for hours.
