Two Cypresses — Fine Art

Two Cypresses by Vincent van Gogh holds two tall shapes against a blue sky. The paint sits in short strokes, green and brown set against bright yellow. From across the room the trees stand straight and the sky stays flat.

This fine art print is ready to hang on arrival. Up close the marks turn rough and the branches split into small lines. You see the artist work in bright colour, the kind of post impressionist painting he made outside. The print keeps that contrast, so the dark green stays firm on the page.

The paper is matte, which stops the green and blue from flashing under a lamp. A light frame on a dark wall makes the trees stand out, a dark frame on a pale wall does the same.
