Choose options
Painted in April 1889 during his voluntary stay at the Hôtel-Dieu hospital in Arles following his breakdown, Vincent van Gogh's The Ward in the Hospital at Arles depicts the long whitewashed ward with rows of iron beds and nuns moving between patients. Far from a document of despair, the work transforms institutional space into a scene of quiet human dignity, rendered with remarkable freshness and chromatic sensitivity. One of the most historically poignant interiors in all of Post-Impressionist painting.
