Bulb Fields (1883) by Vincent van Gogh

[booksivereadandwanttoremember]

Vincent van Gogh "Bulb Fields (Flower Beds In Holland)" 1883.

"Reclaimed from sea-bottom mud containing the perfect mix of sand and clay for growing flowers. The Hague in May was a veritable Eden: flowers bloomed in unrivaled abundance on roadsides and canal banks, in parks and gardens, on balconies and verandas, in window boxes and doorstep pots, even on the barges that glided by. Perpetual moisture from tree-shaded ponds and canals "seemed every morning to paint with a newer and more intense green," wrote one enchanted visitor."

—Van Gogh: The Life by Steven Naifeh and Gregory White Smith
