A deep dive into an artistically fecund period in Van Gogh's life spent in a serene commune of Southern France

Vincent van Gogh (1853-90) created some of his most famous works during the time he spent in Saint-Rémy-de-Provence between 1889 and 1890, deriving inspiration from its landscapes, light and culture. This volume reviews Saint-Rémy as it was during Van Gogh's stay, as well as the artist's supportive experience at the Saint-Paul hospice, where he could paint freely despite his illness. It contextualizes his famed paintings from the period--such as The Starry Night (1889) and Irises (1889)--and documents the myriad ways in which the town has honored its legendary visitor across time. Structured by six essays, the volume brings together contributors from diverse disciplinary backgrounds--including psychiatry, astrophysics and history--to reflect upon Van Gogh's time in the town. Each is illustrated by Van Gogh's paintings and preparatory sketches as well as a plethora of archival materials held by the town.
