Roses
Pictures by Vincent van Gogh
Vincent van Gogh's armful of roses spills from a green vase against a soft green wall, painted in thick, lively brushstrokes. He made it in May 1890, the same week as his Irises, and the roses that look white today were once pink. For someone who loves flowers and fine art.

Post-Impressionism / ROSES / Vincent van Gogh, 1890 / An armful of roses in a green vase, painted in May 1890, the same week as the Irises. The roses were once pink; their color has faded, but the rhythm of Van Gogh's brushstrokes still gives them life. / Oil on canvas · The Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York
