FRAMING INFORMATION
1st Art Gallery offers the option to receive your painting ready to hang or rolled in a tube.
Currently, for safety, we're able to ship framed paintings only up to a certain size. Once the maximum size is reached, the framing option is automatically disabled.
However, if you are interested in stretching or framing a painting larger than 24x36 inches (60x90 cm), please contact one of our customer success associates or let us know in your order notes. We will send you a catalog of our large framing styles and pricing options.
Unframed rolled canvas orders will arrive rolled inside a protective tube with an extra 1.5" white canvas on all sides so you can easily frame it locally.
Vincent Van Gogh admitted himself into an asylum in Saint-Rémy after having a severe breakdown and cutting part of his ear. He had dreams of working alongside with Paul Gauguin in his Studio of the South, founded in Arles. Unfortunately, their partnership didn't work out, and they had a serious argument, leading to the incident. He was already feeling ill when he moved to southern France, so the artist decided to get treatment at the asylum where he stayed for about a year.
During this time, Van Gogh never wanted to stop working. When he was too sick to leave the facility, the artist painted still life works portraying flowers or copied artworks from artists he admired, but always interpreting the colors in his unique way. When the artist recovered enough of his health to go outside, the Post-Impressionist didn't lose time and went out to paint the landscape. Throughout this year, he extensively depicts the landscape with a variety of trees, like cypresses, olive groves, pine trees, among others.
Painted in 1889, Pine Trees Against A Red Sky With Setting Sun is an example of one of these paintings done en plein air - meaning he painted them outside. Inspired by the Impressionists, Van Gogh valued natural light and its optical effects. The artist joined this influence with the knowledge of color brought by the Pointillists to create his unique style. This artwork is a perfect example of the painter's bold use of color, something he emphasized by the end of his life.
The scene is often linked to the idea of rebirth. Van Gogh had hoped for a better and healthier life - a subject that shows in many of his works. This particular work portrays a woman with a parasol walking down a road next to a series of twisted pine trees and illuminated by the orange sun. The sky incorporates tonalities of yellow, orange, red and green. The dark vegetation on the right contrasts with the bright sky and grass.
He retouched the painting after leaving the asylum as he felt the need to soften the color pallet. He used strokes of, what he called, âa dull and dirty whiteâ in many areas - like the trees and the ground. It is believed he enjoyed this artwork, for it was one of the few signed paintings that he concluded at Saint-Rémy.
