Almond Blossoms Tapestry – Van Gogh

Vincent Van Gogh’s mental problems have become legendary not just in the art world but everywhere else. He committed himself to an asylum in Saint-Remy and at age 37, finally succumbed to his inner demons by taking his own life. Despite all that, Van Gogh has given the world some of the most beautiful works of art of all time, such as the famous The Starry Night, Café Terrace at Night and Irises. Almond Blossoms, painted in 1890, is no exception. See all of these famous works-of-art as fine woven goods for your home decor.

Almond Blossoms was painted for a special occasion in Van Gogh’s life. Vincent’s brother, named Theo, and his wife Johanna, bore a son, whom they called Vincent Willem. Van Gogh painted Almond Blossom to celebrate this joyous even in their lives. The green-gray leaves undulating against the pure, white flowers, as well as the decorative silhouettes under the bright, sunny skies reveal Van Gogh’s experiments using Japanese designs. He was greatly influenced by the Oriental aesthetic and sought to incorporate this into his works. He wanted a European counterpart of the Japanese design and he was able to achieve all that in his beautiful paintings depicting nature and the outdoors.

Like many of Van Gogh’s paintings, Almond Blossoms is often reproduced in the form of tapestries and other kinds of wall décor. Almond Blossoms is also often copied by other artists, using the same kind of medium that the artist originally used, that is, by using oil paints. Oil paintings of Almond Blossom generally sell for a much higher price than a simple print, because it takes much more effort and ingenuity to capture the essence of this painting.
