Description
Vincent van Gogh's Meules de bl, painted in June 1888 during his Provenal summer in Arles, captures the vibrant harvest scene with towering wheat stacks. This series marked the peak of his artistic output. Influenced by Japonisme, Van Gogh revolutionized drawing during this time, combining bold lines and vivid color. The Millet-esque depiction of women harvesting wheat symbolizes his deep connection to farm life. The painting's journey through collections reflects historical events, including anti-Jewish persecution and art confiscation during the Nazi regime. For collectors like Miriam Caroline Alexandrine de Rothschild, recovering looted art became a post-war mission. Sold for USD 35,855,000 on 11 Nov 2021, this masterpiece carries a legacy that transcends both artistic and historical realms.
