Product Information

Post-Impressionist Grand Master Vincent Van Gogh’s “Irises, Saint Remy, 1889,” depicts the garden of the hospital where he spent the last months of his life. Suffering from depression for most of his life, Van Gogh (1853 – 1890) believed he could remain sane by painting and continued to do so while in Saint Remy. This work, the first he created while he was a patient, was influenced by the strong outlines, unusual angles and unconventional coloring of Japanese ukiyo-e woodblock prints. Selling only one painting in his lifetime, Van Gogh’s “Irises, Saint-Remy” set a world record in 1987 when it sold for $49 million.
