Grapes (Nature morte avec des grappes de raisin), 1887 by Vincent van Gogh

Grapes, painted by Vincent van Gogh in 1887 presents a dense cluster of dark purple grapes tumbling beside pale green grapes on a plain white plate, set against a vibrating yellow-green ground. Painted during his Paris years, the work belongs to a group of still lifes in which Van Gogh tested saturated color contrasts inspired by his contact with the Impressionists, applying paint in short, dense strokes that give the fruit real physical weight.

Artist: Vincent van Gogh (Dutch, 1853-1890). Date: 1887.
