Riverbank with Trees
Vincent van Gogh (1887)
Riverbank with Trees is a compact 1887 study in which Vincent van Gogh turns a modest Seine embankment into a field of <strong>vibration and light</strong>. Diagonal sweeps of lilac and ochre sand collide with <strong>staccato foliage</strong> and a single upright trunk, fusing observation with sensation <sup>[1]</sup><sup>[2]</sup>.
