About the Item

Danish carpet made of pure wool by Ege Axminster A/S - Denmark for the 20th century masters carpet collection. label on back. Licensed by: Van Gogh International B.V. in 1995 Design No. 80583 carpet number 135- Size: 140 cm. x 200 cm. Original Label on the back. Vincent Willem van Gogh (1853 - 1890) was a Dutch painter. Vincent van Gogh's "Olive Trees" is a painting created in 1889. The painting, depicted in this carpet, is part of a series of works depicting olive trees, a subject that deeply fascinated the artist because of their winding shape and the symbolic power they evoked. The color palette is vibrant, dominated by deep greens, blue tones and sky blues, juxtaposed with touches of yellow, ochre and brown. The colors are bold and not naturalistic, but rather expressive, as is often the case in Van Gogh's works. The sky, for example, is not light blue but deep blue, almost turbulent. The olive trees have twisted and gnarled trunks, the branches winding and elongating into serpentine shapes, creating a sense of dynamism. Van Gogh manages to capture the essence of nature through these strokes, which express the tension and vitality of the trees.
