Terrace of a Cafe on Montmartre "La Guinguette" 1886

Vincent van Gogh's 1886 painting "Terrace of a Cafe on Montmartre 'La Guinguette'" depicts a Parisian cafe with patrons enjoying the evening. The outdoor cafe setting, with its tables, chairs, and potted plants, is rendered in van Gogh's signature style, characterized by bold brushstrokes and vibrant colors. The painting captures the lively atmosphere of a Parisian cafe, with its patrons and the bustling city life beyond. This piece, currently housed in the Musée d'Orsay, is a quintessential example of Impressionism and offers a glimpse into the vibrant social life of late 19th-century Paris.
