This example is based on a detail from Almond Blossom, 1890 by Vincent van Gogh (1853–90). Demonstrating influence from Impressionism and Japanese prints, Almond Blossom was painted in response to the birth of Vincent van Gogh’s nephew. Motivated by the occasion and moved by his brother Theo naming the child after him, Van Gogh painted Almond Blossom as a gift in celebration of the event. He had previously been greatly inspired by flowering trees, and appreciated their power as symbols of rebirth. Van Gogh shared a close relationship with his brother Theo, writing letters to him throughout his life, with more than 600 letters still surviving. Today, Van Gogh is one of the most loved and respected artists all over the world.
