Mulberry Tree

In Mulberry Tree, Vincent Van Gogh uses yellow and blueas complimentary colours contrasting strongly against each other as the foreground and background to give an impressive and eye catching painting. Van Gogh completed the Mulberry Tree whilst at the French Saint-Rémy asylum in 1889. It was around this period that many of his most accomplished and challenging works were produced. Vincent's technique for the Mulberry Tree was aggressive and inspired, combining brush and palette expressionism to produce a bold painting in style and colour. It also shows Van Gogh's exceptional eye for colur and subject.

Van Gogh believed this painting to be his best version of a series that he completed of Mulberry Tree paintings, which he indicated in letter to his brother Theo Va n Gogh who was an art dealer, and one of Vincent's biggest fans.

Mulberry Tree is a famous impressionist painting by Dutch master Vincent Van Gogh.

This Van Gogh painting is just one of many popular works that were created from his prolific but short career as an artist in France. Van Gogh's Post-impressionist techniques remain popular with art followers and his classic 19th century paintings are displayed in major exhibitions around the world, particularly Europe and North America. His unusual style of painting has been attributed to his unstable mental condition and it's originality is a major reason for his success.
