About the piece
Painted in early 1889, this striking work by Vincent van Gogh showcases the artist's masterful use of complementary colors and textured brushwork. The vibrant contrast between the orange-red shells and the undulating green background creates a dynamic composition that exemplifies the energy of his late Arles period.
