Factories at Asnieres, Seen from the Quai de Clichy 1887

Painted in 1887, "Factories at Asnières, Seen from the Quai de Clichy" by Vincent van Gogh is a captivating example of Post-Impressionism. The painting, now housed at the Saint Louis Art Museum, captures the industrial landscape of Asnières-sur-Seine, near Paris, with bold brushstrokes and vivid colors. The towering chimneys of the factories, billowing smoke, and the vibrant yellow field in the foreground create a dynamic composition that evokes a sense of both beauty and the harsh realities of the industrial age.
