Paperblanks collectible bookmark Van Gogh: Irises. Design on both sides. Rounded corners. Dimensions: 4x18,5cm.
Dutch artist Vincent van Gogh (1853-1890) was one of the greatest Post-Impressionist painters. The quasi-spiritual nature of his swirling brushstrokes, contoured shapes and intense colors had a considerable influence on the development of modern painting. Although much of his work, like this study of Iris, is full of clarity and light, Van Gogh's own life was filled with personal turmoil.
A serious mental health crisis, during which he famously cut off his ear, caused Van Gogh to be admitted to the Saint-Paul asylum in Saint-Rémy, in the south of France. His convalescence began with the painting of the asylum garden, the work Iris being the main production. The careful study of nature was the foundation of Van Gogh's art, as his precise delineation of individual flowers suggests, but he also brought to this study an astonishing degree of subjective intensity. One can emotionally feel the painting's strong colors, thickly applied paint, and powerful decorative rhythms, all of which convey the artist's sense of the overflowing vitality of nature.
