RAIN AT AUVERS

Rain at Auvers by Vincent Van Gogh was painted by the Dutch post-impressionist artist in 1890.

Vincent was in Auvers-sur-Oise. It was 1890 and it was July, the last month of his life. Van Gogh painted with a frenzy during this last few weeks of his life, pouring out a number of paintings.

Rain at Auvers shows us the vast use of colours and brushstrokes by Van Gogh. Note the heavy use of paint. The rain appears like blue poles across the landscape of Auvers. Both oil and crayon waterpaint were used by Vincent in Rain at Auvers. Vincent shows us the roofs of houses hidden a valley in Auvers. Tall trees spiral upwards. When one looks at Rain at Auvers, we can see that Van Gogh has created an illusion of a vast amount of area.
