Green Wheat Field with Cypress Postcard — Vincent van Gogh | Zolota Ptakha

Begun in the spring of 1889 from the asylum at Saint-Rémy, this is one of the canvases in which Van Gogh treats a wheat field as a single restless, breathing surface. The cypress stands as a dark, vertical certainty against everything else that is moving — a small drama played out entirely in line and stroke.
