Sunflowers were among Vincent van Goghs favorite subjects to paint. Beginning with four still lifes in Paris in 1887, he depicted sunflowers resting on a flat surface. However, his most famous series was painted in Arles a year later, featuring more than a dozen sunflowers arranged in an earthenware pot. The moment he painted his first bouquet, he proclaimed to his brother Theo, “Im painting with the gusto of a Marseillais eating bouillabaisse, which wont surprise you when its a question of painting large Sunflowers.” Excited, he painted four canvases in quick succession.It was a subject he planned to return to for a large Sunflower series. “If I carry out this idea, there will be a dozen panels,” he wrote. He only completed seven in Arles. Our deli
