Arles

Jaehun Lee 11/8/17 Second Writing Assignment The explosive interaction between Gauguin and Van Gogh in Arles in 1888 can be said to condense and bring to head a conflict between two different ways of conceiving art and aesthetic experience that had been brewing throughout the 19th Century. How do you see the contrast between their approaches to painting? And how does this contrast bear out these different tendencies? While the painters after the Impressionism period were called the “Post-Impressionists

Two Ways To Paint a Picture When Vincent Van Gogh painted his oil on canvas work titled The Bedroom of van gogh at Arles he wanted to capture the colors and emotion in the room. Van Gogh wanted to bring forth the idea of peace and relaxation and used his brush to do so. Jane Flanders on the other hand, chose another route to discuss the feelings in the room. In the poem titled “Van Gogh’s Bed”, Flanders uses another form of art, poetry, to paint a picture of a room. Flanders takes the painting

The painting that I chose to write my formal analysis on is called “The Café Terrace on the Place du Forum, Arles, At Night”. This piece was created by Vincent Van Gogh in Arles, France and was completed sometime in September of 1888. This painting is oil on canvas, and it is currently housed in the Kroller-Muller Museum located in Otterlo, The Netherlands in Europe. This painting depicts a sidewalk café in France at night. There is a doorway to the front left of the painting that is painted blue

When I first looked at this painting, I thought to myself, "It's boring. It's boring to look at. Why paint a picture of an empty bedroom?" However, once I started looking at all the elements, my mind changed.      Van Gogh's use of line really gives depth and character to the piece. The first line that caught my eye was the line outlining the bottom of the bed. The strong stroke really gives you a sense of distance between the bottom of the frame and the floor.

Dear friend Dolcy, I am visiting the city of Arles located in the southwestern France. The city is prominent for the masterpiece “The Postman Joseph Roulin” painted by Van Gogh in the early August of 1888. Van Gogh painting has influenced the contemporarily art in the twenty century. In addition, the artist was a Post-Impressionist, with the ability to seize the intensity of emotion and the beauty in his artwork. I really appreciate Van Gogh portraits. Due to that, I want to discover the city of

strokes, textures and variations to the paint to enable viewers to understand the story which they want to be told. Vincent van Gogh was a lonely and poor man, but one of the more memorable artists because of his story telling. Starry Night, Bedroom in Arles and Self-Portrait with Bandaged Ear are just a few of Vincent van Gogh’s famous paintings. Van Gogh was a Dutch painter born in 1853 and he was a part of the Post-Impressionist period of art. Most of van Gogh’s painting can be considered a biographical

him in the south. Vincent worked hard to prepare the Yellow House in order to make Gauguin feel welcome. Gauguin arrived in Arles by train early on 23 October.      The next two months would be pivotal, and disastrous, for both Vincent van Gogh and Paul Gauguin. Initially Van Gogh and Gauguin got on well together, painting on the outskirts of Arles, discussing their art and differing techniques. The relationship between Van Gogh and Gauguin deteriorated throughout December

Visual opulence, creativity, inimitable vision, and a style that is highly influential are the many characteristics of an admired movement in art history called Post-Impressionism (1875-1892). This movement, which was the by-product of the Impressionism movement, is the bridging gap between the two movements known as Realism and Expressionism. Post-Impressionism takes on some of the stylistic characteristics of these movements; however, it does not contain the all too glossy visuals of Realism or

A Discussion again focused on comparing the two saying how the preference of Brittany versus Arles says much about how their creative process differed. Gauguin’s rarely depicts his subject matter with descriptive accuracy instead he takes a place and abstracts the savage and primitive quality that he is searching for. Brittany offers Gauguin not
