Portrait of Madame Ginoux (L'Arlesienne) 1888

Vincent van Gogh's "Portrait of Madame Ginoux (L'Arlesienne)" from 1888 depicts Madame Ginoux, the wife of the owner of the Cafe de la Gare in Arles, France. This portrait captures Ginoux's melancholic gaze and features the bold, swirling brushstrokes characteristic of Van Gogh's Post-Impressionist style, emphasizing texture and emotional intensity. The background of stylized almond blossoms further evokes the mood of the subject, who is depicted in a simple yet elegant white dress.
