Peach Tree in Blossom / Flowering Peach Tree By Vincent Van Gogh
Peach Tree in Blossom by Vincent van Gogh is matched here to the Kröller-Müller Museum’s Pink Peach Trees ('Souvenir de Mauve'), painted at Arles around 30 March 1888. Blossoming peach trees fill the vertical landscape beneath a bright spring sky. Van Gogh considered the painting one of his most successful orchard works and dedicated it to the memory of his former teacher and relative Anton Mauve after learning of Mauve’s death. Catalogued as F 394 / JH 1379, the historic oil-on-canvas painting measures approximately 73 × 60 cm.
Important Identification
Van Gogh painted several peach trees and flowering orchards in Arles in spring 1888. Because your supplied metadata specifies the Kröller-Müller Museum, this SKU is matched to Pink Peach Trees ('Souvenir de Mauve').
This avoids confusing it with the different Van Gogh Museum paintings also titled Peach Tree in Blossom or The Pink Peach Tree.
Fourteen Blossom Paintings in a Short Period
The Kröller-Müller Museum explains that Van Gogh painted fruit trees almost daily when the orchards around Arles came into bloom. In a short period he produced fourteen paintings together with additional sketches and drawings.
The flowering season was brief, so he worked quickly to record trees at the moment of blossom.
A Memorial to Anton Mauve
On the evening after making this work, Van Gogh received news from his sister that Anton Mauve had died. Mauve had been an important early teacher who helped him learn oil and watercolour painting.
Van Gogh decided to dedicate the painting to Mauve and wanted the memorial to feel tender and cheerful rather than dark or mournful.
