Two Cut SunflowersAugust-September 1887, ParisOil on canvas, 50 x 61 cm Kunstmuseum, Bern | |
Catalogue numbers: F 376, JH 1331. Late in the summer of 1887, when the sunflowers were fading, van Gogh addressed the motif of sunflowers, isolating and focusing it in two small format studies, the present one in Bern (F 376) and another in New York (F 375). On these studies a third, large-format painting of cut sunflowers (F 452) is based. |
