Episode description
Van Gogh painted orchards during the two springs that he spent in Arles, in southern France, in 1888 and 1889. He created this painting outdoors during the second year, using rhythmically dashed strokes, daring blue-purple outlines for trees and rocks, and vivid greens to express his joyous feelings about the passing of winter.
