High-quality Vincent Van Gogh Art Prints | Replica Paintings For Sale

What made Vincent Van Gogh famous?

Vincent's work had been shown in shows in Paris and Brussels in the final two years of his life, and he had garnered notoriety among the avant-garde. Vincent's brother Theo desired nothing more than to boost the profile of his brother's work after his death.

Six months later, though, Theo died as well. Jo van Gogh-Bonger, his widow, set about completing the assignment. She sold some of Vincent's paintings, lent others for shows, and most crucially, she published his letters to Theo.

One of the reasons why Van Gogh's work gradually grabbed the world by storm is because of his interesting personal story. This would not have been achieved without Jo's dedication.

Almond Blossom by Vincent Van Gogh

Large blossom branches like this against a blue sky were one of Van Gogh’s favorite subjects. Almond trees flower early in the spring making them a symbol of new life.

Van Gogh borrowed the subject, the bold outlines, and the positioning of the tree in the picture plane from Japanese printmaking.

The painting was a gift for his brother Theo and sister-in-law Jo, who had just had a baby son, Vincent Willem.

In the letter announcing the new arrival, Theo wrote: ‘As we told you, we’ll name him after you, and I’m making the wish that he may be as determined and as courageous as you.’ Unsurprisingly, it was this work that remained closest to the hearts of the Van Gogh family. Vincent Willem went on to found the Van Gogh Museum.

Cafe Terrace at Night by Vincent Van Gogh

The idea of a carefree spectator who appreciates the pleasure of his surroundings without any moral worry is captured in this painting of a vivid outdoor vista. It evokes Van Gogh's feeling that "the night is more lively and brilliantly colored than the day," as he wrote.

The colors are more vibrant, and the attention is drawn to the steeped or dove-tailed edges of adjoining sections, which are irregular forms that fit together like a jigsaw puzzle.

It is difficult for the eyes to divide this space for a long time into a major object and backdrop themes; the distant and closer parts are similarly separate.

The yellow of the cafe contrasts with the blue-black of the distant street and the violet-blue of the foreground door, and, in a compositional paradox that helps to unify the piece, the awning's blunt corner nearest to us brushes the distant blue sky at the strongest point of contrast.

Lines that are foreshortened and shoved into depth, such as the entrance lintel, are parallel to lines like the yellow awning's slope and the roof of the building above, which are in planes perpendicular to the first.

The upward dimension is just as essential and expressive as the depth in this roaming, unengaged perspective.

Starry Night by Vincent Van Gogh

The painting Starry Night is one of the most well-known works of art in the world. It's also all over the place. It appears on coffee, mugs, t-shirts, towels, magnets, and other items. To be honest, I sometimes get the impression that the painting's fame has eclipsed that of its creator.

It's an incredible work of art. The fact that Starry Night has such a wide appeal demonstrates how timeless and universal its beauty is.

During his stay at the Saint-Paul-de-Mausole asylum near Saint-Rémy-de-Provence in 1889, Vincent van Gogh painted Starry Night.

Van Gogh had a good time in the hospital and was given more freedom than the other patients. He was allowed to leave the hospital grounds if he attended, and he was allowed to paint, read, and withdraw into his chamber.

He was even granted his own studio space. While he had the occasional relapse into paranoia and fits - he had been officially diagnosed with epileptic fits - his mental health looked to be improving. Regrettably, he relapsed.

As his sadness worsened, he began to have hallucinations and suicidal ideas. As a result, his work underwent a tone shift.

He returned to the deeper hues he used at the start of his career, and Starry Night is a great example of that change. The artwork is dominated by blue, which blends the hills into the sky.

The small village is painted in browns, greys, and blues near the bottom of the artwork.

The yellow and white of the stars and the moon stand out against the sky, attracting the eyes to the sky, although each building is highlighted in black. They are the painting's main focus of attention.

Irises by Vincent Van Gogh

Irises is one of several paintings of irises by the Dutch artist Vincent van Gogh, and one of a sequence of works he completed in the last year of his life at the Saint Paul-de-Mausole asylum in Saint-Rémy-de-Provence, France.

In May 1889, a week after entering the asylum, Van Gogh began painting Irises in the hospital garden, working from nature. There isn't the same level of intensity as in his later works.

The painting was dubbed "the lightning conductor for my disease" because he believed that continuing to paint would save him from going insane.

Like many of his and other artists' works at the time, the painting was most likely influenced by Japanese ukiyo-e woodblock prints.

Strong outlines, uncommon angles, especially close-up views, and flattish local color are all common features (not modeled according to the fall of light). Softness and lightness abound in this picture. Irises are vibrant and free of tragedy.

Although Theo, Van Gogh's brother, thought better of it and soon submitted it to the annual show of the Société des Artistes Indépendants in September 1889, along with Starry Night Over the Rhone, he regarded this painting as a study, which is presumably why there are no known drawings for it.He responded to the exhibition's Vincent: "From afar, [it] catches the eye. The Irises are a lovely study that is full of life and air." One of his most well-known works is this picture.

Potato Eaters by Vincent Van Gogh

Many consider The Potato Eaters, painted in 1885, to be Van Gogh's first major work of art. Van Gogh had just recently begun painting at the time of its creation and had not yet mastered the techniques that would later make him famous.

This could be due to the painting's intriguing appearance as well as the overall impression it evokes.

Van Gogh wanted to paint his first masterpiece to establish himself as a mature artist; his goal was to paint human beings that did not appear awkward but rather existed naturally.

However, painting the figures in a dark room with only an oil lamp for illumination proved to be a step too far for his newly acquired creative abilities. All of these elements combined to make the painting more popular in the art world than it would have been if Van Gogh had completed his original job.

The finished picture depicted five characters seated around a square table eating potatoes, four of whom are girls and one of whom is male.

Despite the piece's darkness, the mixed emotions on the occupants' faces shine through vividly. These figures are so vivid that one can almost hear what's being spoken around the table.

Perhaps the contrast between the vibrancy and the darkness is what brings the viewer in closer to inspect the painting's finer elements.

Self-portrait by Vincent Van Gogh (1889)

Vincent van Gogh, a Dutch Post-Impressionist painter, painted a self-portrait in oil on canvas in September 1889. Van Gogh painted the picture just before leaving Saint-Rémy-de-Provence in southern France.

The picture is now on display in the Orsay Museum in Paris.

This was one of roughly 32 self-portraits he painted over ten years, and they were an important part of his work as a painter; he painted himself since he couldn't afford to hire models.

He brought the artwork to Auvers-sur-Oise, near Paris, and presented it to Dr. Paul Gachet, who described it as "totally fanatical."

Church at Auvers by Vincent Van Gogh

The Church has become a prominent tourist destination in Auvers due to Van Gogh's work.

The lighting in the Church of Auvers is one of the painting's strongest features, since it creates an excellent mood throughout the painting, with both dark and light parts contrasting in different spots.

Van Gogh was a bold painter who would joyfully leave contrasting things in his paintings to draw the viewer's attention.

This boldness can be found in the work of famous post-impressionists like Van Gogh. The artist painted the Church in a very emotional and artistic manner, rejecting the conventional realist methods used by other artists.

Van Gogh wanted to imbue the building with his own emotion, so he used a combination of vivid colors and shading, as well as a wavy approach to the items in the picture, to give it a more intriguing appearance. It was similar to his treatment of the sky in Starry Night.

Wheatfield with Crows by Vincent Van Gogh

Wheat Field with Crows is regarded as one of Vincent van Gogh's most dramatic and contentious works. This painting's multiple interpretations are perhaps more diverse than any other in Van Gogh's works.

Some perceive it as Van Gogh's "suicide note" on canvas, while others see it as a more positive approach that goes beyond a basic survey of the subject matter.

Some of the more outspoken critics go even further, beyond the canvas and the brushstrokes, to convert the visuals into an altogether new subconscious language.

Wheat Field with Crows is not, according to common belief, Van Gogh's final piece. If the painting indeed was Van Gogh's final work before his suicide, it does make for a nicely wrapped interpretive gift.

Without a doubt, the painting is tumultuous, and it portrays a sense of loneliness in the fields—a striking image of Van Gogh as a defeated and alone artist in his later years.

Night Café by Vincent Van Gogh

Van Gogh painted Night Café in September 1888 while he was residing in Arles. He had relocated to a room at the Café de la Gare earlier in the year, which is portrayed in this work.

Over the summer, Van Gogh remained there for a few months while furnishing what would become known as "The Yellow House," where he would famously live with Gauguin for a short time. Van Gogh depicts a billiards table that is not in use in the center of the canvas.

Three walls of the room are visible, with a door on the opposite side of the spectator. Tables and chairs line the walls, some of which are occupied by persons stooped over the tables.

The majority of the six figures are men, however, one table has a woman. A standing guy in white, the café's proprietor, stands near the pool table, leaning on another table.

A bar with bottles on top and a vase of flowers in the center is located on the far wall by the entryway.

Van Gogh's heightened perspective generates dizzying angles, resulting in the deep yellow floor taking up the majority of the painting. The walls are a deep red, which contrasts with the yellow floors and dangling yellow lights.

Starry Night Over the Rhone by Vincent Van Gogh

One of Vincent van Gogh's paintings of Arles at night is Starry Night Over the Rhône. It was painted on the Rhône's bank, just a few minutes' walk from the Yellow House on the Place Lamartine, which Van Gogh was renting at the time.

Some of van Gogh's most renowned paintings, notably Café Terrace at Night (painted earlier that month) and The Starry Night (painted in June 1889), were inspired by the night sky and the effects of light at night. Van Gogh was drawn to the challenge of painting at night.

In "Starry Night Over the Rhone," he found a vantage position that allowed him to catch the reflections of Arles' gas lighting across the Rhone's glistening blue water.

Two lovers wander along the riverbanks in the foreground. From the dark, blue, and velvety night sky, his stars shine with brilliance. Houses dotted along the Rhone's banks also emit a light that reflects in the water, adding to the painting's eerie aura.
