About the piece

Painted in 1887 during his time in Paris, 'L'Italienne' captures Vincent van Gogh's experimentation with Pointillist influences and bold color contrasts. The subject, believed to be Agostina Segatori, is framed by an integral decorative border of stippled lines, a technique that highlights the artist's evolving style and sophisticated use of texture.
