The Langlois Bridge (Pont de Langlois), 1888 by Vincent van Gogh
Choose options
The Langlois Bridge, painted by Vincent van Gogh in 1888, depicts one of the wooden drawbridges spanning the canal outside Arles, its angular timber framework reflected in the still green water while small figures cross along the towpath. Drawn to the bridge’s resemblance to the canals of his native Netherlands and its echoes of Japanese woodblock prints, Van Gogh painted the subject several times during his first months in Provence, using bright, flattened color to capture the southern light.
Artist: Vincent van Gogh (Dutch, 1853-1890). Date: 1888.
