Grape-pickers
Van Gogh wrote to Paul Gauguin from Arles on 3 October 1888:
‘I have an extraordinary fever for work these days, at present I’m grappling with a landscape with blue sky above an immense green, purple, yellow vine with black and orange shoots. Little figures of ladies with red sunshades, little figures of grape-pickers with their cart further liven it up’.
In just one day.
In a burst of artistic passion, he painted The Green Vineyard in just one day at a gorgeous vineyard located near Montmajour, a stone's throw away from Arles. The surrounding natural beauty was absolutely breathtaking, and he was determined to immortalize it in his painting without any delay.
