Wheatfield — Vincent van Gogh

Vincent van Gogh. Painted 1888.

In 1888, Paris became too busy for Van Gogh, and in the spring he left for Arles. He was captivated by the vibrant colours of the landscape in the south of France. The yellow of the wheat takes centre stage here, thanks to the high horizon. Van Gogh further intensified the blue of the mountains and the sky to enhance the colour contrast with that yellow.
