Adult - Vincent van Gogh - Sunflowers

Van Gogh's paintings of sunflowers are among his most famous works. He painted them in Arles, in the south of France, in 1888 and 1889. Vincent painted a total of five large canvases of sunflowers in a vase, with three shades of yellow "and nothing else." In this way he demonstrates that it is possible to create an image with numerous variations of a single color without losing eloquence.
