Description
Vincent van Gogh’s The Mulberry Tree spreads flame-colored foliage across a deep blue sky. A dark trunk divides into twisting branches, and the surrounding ground rises in pale, sweeping strokes. Yellow, orange, blue, and white give the small landscape a concentrated brilliance.
Painted in 1889, the work makes the tree’s autumn growth the center of a forceful rhythm. Thick marks connect leaves, hillside, and sky, yet each keeps its own direction and texture. The trunk anchors this restless surface, giving the scene a firm structure beneath its extraordinary movement and color.
