A framed painting by Vincent van Gogh entitled "Green Wheat Fields, Auvers".

Vincent Willem van Gogh (30 March 1853 to 29 July 1890) was a post Impressionist painter of Dutch origin whose work, notable for its rough beauty, emotional honesty and bold color, had a far reaching influence on 20th century art. In May 1890, Van Gogh left the clinic in Saint Remy to move nearer the physician Dr. Paul Gachet in Auvers sur Oise, and also to his brother Theo. Gachet was recommended by Camille Pissarro, had treated several other artists, and was himself an amateur artist. Van Goghs first impression was that Gachet was ...sicker than I am, I think, or shall we say just as much. At this time his thoughts returned to his memories of the North. Several of the approximately 70 oils he painted during his 70 days in Auvers sur Oise are reminiscent of northern scenes.
