About the piece
Painted in 1889 during his stay in Saint-Rémy, this masterpiece showcases Vincent van Gogh's signature rhythmic brushwork and bold use of color. The composition captures the monumental presence of old plane trees, their twisted trunks providing a powerful vertical structure against the bustling activity of road workers and a lamp-lit building in the background.
