Trees in the Garden in Front of the Entrance to Saint-Paul Hospital - Van Gogh


We just learned about the Van Gogh painting A Corner of Saint-Paul Hospital and the Garden with a Heavy, Sawed-Off Tree.

Another of Van Gogh's famous paintings is Trees in the Garden in Front of the Entrance to Saint-Paul Hospital.

Van Gogh always loved gardens and felt that they had a special healing power.

When he was at the hospital, he looked at the garden many times and made paintings of the flowers and trees.
