Description |
“I have a View of the Rhône—the Trinquetaille iron bridge, where the sky and the river are the color of absinthe—the quays a lilac tone, the people leaning on the parapet almost black, the iron bridge an intense blue—with a bright orange note in the blue background and an intense Veronese green note” (Letter 634 in L. Jansen, H. Luijten and N. Bakker, eds., op. cit., 2009, p. 158). This is how Vincent van Gogh described Le pont de Trinquetaille, a radical work painted during a moment of extraordinary productivity in Arles in June 1888. |
