About the piece
Painted in 1887 during his formative years in Paris, this work captures the rural charm of Montmartre before its total urbanization. Van Gogh employs a light, atmospheric palette and signature short brushstrokes to depict the gardens of the 'Butte' overlooking the sprawling city, offering a serene yet dynamic glimpse into a vanished era of Parisian life.
