THE ARTWORK

Roses

Vincent van Gogh
1890

These pale roses once held a brighter pink.

Behind the artwork

Van Gogh painted Roses in May 1890, among four flower still lifes made before leaving Saint-Rémy. The blossoms once carried stronger pinks. Fading pigments have left only faint traces on the petals and tabletop.

A Room of Roses

The fine walnut edging gently contains the spreading bouquet, the warm paper-colored matting protects the contours of the petals, and the soft gray-green wall continues the lines of the vase and leaves.
