Painting background

Van Gogh loved wheat fields and cypress trees, and golden wheat fields and green cypress trees fascinated him. In late June 1889, when Van Gogh was allowed out of the madhouse with tutors, he painted the first version of the wheat field on the same spot, which he considers a preliminary print and a study of the final version, now at the Metropolitan . Museum of Art, New York. In September of the same year, when Van Gogh was temporarily confined to his room due to a relapse of his illness, he painted this painting (now in the National Gallery) in the same proportions as the first edition. In addition, he painted a reduced version of the same work for his mother and sister (now in a private collection). It contains typical Provence themes, with fields of golden wheat, tall evergreen cypress trees, olive groves, and a blue alpine backdrop. This landscape painting has a special, even symbolic, meaning for Van Gogh. In particular, this is a life and death metaphor based on biblical parables. The cycle from sowing to harvesting wheat is usually represented by the images of the sower and the reaper. Van Gogh mentioned painting outdoors in the strong cold winds of southern France at Mistral in summer. Here, we can feel the effect of the wind not only on the wheat and trees, but also on the clouds and even on the mountains in the distance, because everything is represented by powerful rhythmic lines. On June 25, 1889, a month after van Gogh's admission to the Saint-Paul-de-Mossol psychiatric hospital in Saint-Rémy, in the south of France, he wrote to his brother Theo: "The cypresses are still so fascinated by I wanted to paint them». like sunflowers, because to my amazement, no one has painted them the way I see them. Its lines and proportions are as beautiful as the Egyptian obelisks; a quality as unique as dark patches of color in a landscape bathed in sunlight. explains why he painted cypress trees in a wheat field.
