Sunflowers | Vincent van Gogh

Sunflowers (1887) by Vincent van Gogh (Dutch, 1853–1890) is an intimate close-up still life depicting two sunflower heads set against a striking blue background. Unlike his later, more famous sunflower series in vases, this early study focuses on the raw structure, texture, and colour of the blossoms themselves. The bold contrast of golden petals against the vibrant blue creates an expressive composition that reflects van Gogh’s evolving Post-Impressionist style and his fascination with natural beauty.
