Description
Van Gogh’s Flowering Plum Tree, after Hiroshige, hand-painted in oil
Painted in Paris in 1887, this striking picture is Van Gogh’s oil copy of a Japanese woodblock print by Hiroshige: a dark plum trunk cuts boldly across a screen of pink blossom and a red sky, framed by borders of Japanese characters. Van Gogh adored Japanese prints and copied several to learn their flat colour and daring design, a vivid, decorative tribute to the art that shaped his own.
Our version is a hand-painted oil reproduction, brushed onto canvas by a senior studio artist so the bold plum, pink blossom and red sky keep the impact of the original.
Where a bold Japonaiserie belongs
Striking and decorative, it suits a living room, a study, an art room or a hallway, and works well against plain walls that let its colour sing.
Choose a hand-painted oil or a fine-art print
Order it as a hand-painted oil for genuine brushwork and impasto relief, finished by an experienced painter and made to order, or as an archival fine-art print for a smooth, even finish at a lower price.
