Description
Van Gogh’s Canal with Women Washing, hand-painted in oil
Painted near Arles in 1888, this bright scene shows women kneeling to wash clothes on the bank of a canal, the still blue water reflecting the sky and the fields beyond. Van Gogh loved these ordinary scenes of Provence life, and painted the sunlit canal and working figures in fresh, clear colour and firm strokes, a calm, cheerful glimpse of the southern countryside at work.
Our version is a hand-painted oil reproduction, brushed onto canvas by a senior studio artist so the bright canal and figures keep the freshness of the original.
Where a riverside scene belongs
Its fresh, sunny colour suits a living room, a kitchen or a bright hallway, and pairs beautifully with pale walls, wood and natural light.
Choose a hand-painted oil or a fine-art print
