Stone Steps in the Garden of the Asylum 1889

Painted in 1889 during Vincent van Gogh’s stay in Saint-Rémy-de-Provence, "Stone Steps in the Garden of the Asylum" depicts a lush garden scene, possibly inspired by the grounds of the Saint-Paul-de-Mausole asylum where van Gogh resided. The artist's signature bold brushstrokes and vibrant colors create a sense of movement and depth, emphasizing the natural beauty of the landscape. The painting's composition, with its towering cypress tree, winding path, and stone steps, draws the viewer's eye through the garden, inviting contemplation and exploration. This work is currently housed in the Van Gogh Museum in Amsterdam, Netherlands.
