The Lovers, Van Gogh Fine Art Postcard

The Lovers, The Poet's Garden IV. Oil on canvas, 75 x 92 cm. Location unknown; declared to be degenerate by the Nazis and confiscated in 1937. F 485, JH 1615 Colour restoration based on this description in a letter to his brother Theo, c. 21 October 1888: Here is a very vague sketch of my last canvas, a row of green cypresses against a pink sky with a pale lemon crescent. The foreground is vague land and sand and some thistles. Two lovers, the man in pale blue with a yellow hat, the woman with a pink bodice and a black skirt.. That makes the fourth canvas of “The Poet's Garden,” which is the decoration for Gauguin's bedroom. Vincent Willem van Gogh (30 March 1853 – 29 July 1890) was a Dutch Post-Impressionist artist. Some of his paintings are now among the world's best known, most popular and expensive works of art.
