Description
Van Gogh’s Arena in Arles, hand-painted in oil
Painted in Arles in 1888, Arena in Arles turns its back on the bullfight and looks instead at the packed crowd filling the tiers of the ancient Roman amphitheatre. Built from flat areas of bold colour and firm outlines, the influence of Japanese prints and of Gauguin, then working alongside him, it is a lively, decorative scene of local life in yellows, blues and reds.
Our version is a hand-painted oil reproduction, brushed onto canvas by a senior studio artist so the packed crowd and bold flat colour keep the energy of the original.
Where a lively scene belongs
Colourful and full of life, it suits a living room, a dining room or a study, and pairs well with warm, confident interiors.
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.
