Van Gogh painting analysis
This painting is called the Road to Tarascon. Van Gogh drew this between 31st July – 8th August 1888.
In the foreground of the study there are two trees and in the background a horizon. The picture is in perspective.
The horizon is at across the middle of the page and the trees emphasise the horizon. The sun is high in the picture and is very simplistic, but as the rays go out the lines and dots get thicker and closer together. Van Gogh has drawn a very distinct and bold line to determine where the path ends and the trees and grass start.
