Portrait of Postman Roulin, 1888

Portrait of Postman Roulin, 1888. Improving transport through the nineteenth century encouraged the growth of the leisure industry. People were able to travel more easily and quickly, and the middle classes had more time that allowed for holidays. Arles, with its beautiful countryside, historic town and gentle weather was starting to develop a growing tourist trade, and this in turn was bringing revenue to the town. The local women were allegedly famed for their beauty, and the local people would still have been, by and large, dressed in traditional clothing by the time Van Gogh arrived.  100% Hand painted art: Size: Various Sizes Available  Medium: Oil Painting on Canvas Type: Reproduction Artist: Vincent van Gogh  Delivery Time: 14-21 days Item #: R-VAN-094 Portrait of Postman Roulin, 1888  by Vincent van Gogh can be reproduced with the same emotions of the original masterpiece.
