About the piece

Painted in Arles in 1888, this work showcases Vincent van Gogh's mastery of color and energetic application of paint. The artist depicts the facade of a butcher shop with warm orange and yellow tones, contrasted against the cool blues and greens of a passing figure and architectural details, creating a lively sense of 19th-century daily life.
