Description
Van Gogh’s Fishing Boats on the Beach, hand-painted in oil
Painted in 1888 on a trip from Arles to the Mediterranean village of Saintes-Maries-de-la-Mer, this bright scene shows a row of small fishing boats hauled up on the sand, their hulls and masts painted in vivid reds, greens, blues and yellows. Van Gogh loved the colour of these humble craft, and drew them quickly on the spot before they put to sea, fresh, joyful and full of southern light.
Our version is a hand-painted oil reproduction, brushed onto canvas by a senior studio artist so the vivid boats and bright sand keep the freshness of the original.
Where a bright coastal scene belongs
Its cheerful colour suits a living room, a bedroom or a bathroom, and pairs happily with white walls, wood and warm light.
