🌻 Vase with Fifteen Sunflowers – Vincent van Gogh (1888)

An explosion of light, captured in a vase

In this sunny composition, Van Gogh elevates the simplicity of a bouquet of sunflowers to make it an icon of modern painting. Each flower seems to radiate an inner energy, like a celebration of life, color, and the present moment. The work exudes an almost tangible warmth, rooted in the instant and eternity.

Historical context of the work

Painted in Arles during the summer of 1888, this painting is part of a famous series of seven canvases dedicated to sunflowers, created to decorate the room of Paul Gauguin in the Yellow House. Van Gogh, inspired by the light of the Midi and driven by a desire to reinvent still life, develops here a unique pictorial language based on material, emotion, and floral symbolism.

Visual analysis: a controlled monochrome palette

The strength of this painting lies in the unity of tone. From the background to the vase, everything is bathed in shades of yellow: ochre, lemon, gold, saffron... The flowers, at different stages of life, are arranged in a dense, balanced, and dynamic composition. The subtle contrast of the green stems and the blue of the signature "Vincent" elegantly breaks the chromatic dominance.

Emotional and symbolic reading

Sunflowers are the flowers of the sun, of admiration, of gratitude. For Van Gogh, they are a symbol of hope and vitality, but also of the fragility of life, represented here by the withered flowers mixed with the blooming ones. The painting then becomes a meditation on time, beauty, and the cycle of life.
