BLOSSOMING ALMOND BRANCH

Blossoming Almond Branch by Vincent van Gogh is an oil on canvas that was painted by the artist in Arles, France in 1888.

A small solitary almond branch sits a glass of water on a table. Vincent can take something so simple and turn it into something so beautiful.

Vincent uses contrasting yellows, greens and white in a way that gives this painting so much intensity. The blossoms on the almond branch are white, and they sit against a green and gold background. Vincent had a love of the Almond tree, and we see that affection here in Blossoming Almond Branch.
