The painting "The Blooming Garden" was created by the unrecognized in his lifetime, but very talented French artist Vincent Van Gogh in 1888.

Of all the genres of fine art, the French post-impressionist Van Gogh chose landscape. He loved nature fervently and passionately, with a kind of extraterrestrial love, unlike most of his contemporaries. Nature became his inspiration and the source of his creativity.

This canvas depicts an abundance of different colors, in rows shining in the picture as small lights: red, yellow, blue, orange - almost the entire space of the picture is dotted with them. Houses and trees rise above, "framing" the garden, indicating that the infinite array of colors does have boundaries. Under the green tree are arranged the most favorite flowers of the French artist - sunflowers.

Colors, colors, shapes - everything in the picture you can feel Van Gogh’s special language, through which he talks to us through his paintings.

After viewing this painting, following the example of the artist, one also looks at nature with deep affection and love.
