About the piece
Painted in 1889 during his stay at Saint-Rémy, this work captures a solitary iris amidst a lush garden landscape. The heavy impasto and rhythmic brushwork characteristic of Van Gogh's late period create a sense of vitality and movement, making this a quintessential example of botanical Post-Impressionism.
