Still Life Vase with Five Sunflowers 1888

Vincent van Gogh’s “Still Life Vase with Five Sunflowers” (1888) is a vibrant still life featuring five sunflowers in a vase against a dark background. Van Gogh's signature thick brushstrokes and vivid colors are prominent in this piece. His swirling lines and passionate use of yellow and brown create a sense of life and movement even in a still subject. Sadly, this painting is lost to history, having been destroyed.
