Cypresses with Rwo Fguers 1890 Van Gogh

 

Walking along the road .A hot and dusty road 

Two figures walking dominated by the cypress tree standing tall    against  the land  and sky.

The energy in the painting suggested by the markings in the road and the clouds in the sky .

A sense of movement seems to take over. 

Two figures are walking along the road to give the human touch to he landscape

Claude Monet: On The Bank Of The Seine Bennecourt 1868

 

What better place to be on a hot day than under the shade of tree by a river.

The reflections in the water reflecting the blue of the sky as well as some buildings  on the opposite bank, the boat  by the bak a reminder of how the lady sitting on the bank may have traveled.

The blue stripes on the white dress .

 The hat  besides her  indecates she may have   found a cool spot in which to rest

A Road in St Remy 1889 by Van Gogh

Painted in 1889 when van Gogh experienced a nervous breakdown this painting captures the hot dusry road of summer and the lone figuer of the woman  is symbolic perhaps of Van Gogh's own  isolation.

He would wonder the local road at St Remy  and the urge to paint would be upon  him.
There is much energy here as can be seen from the brush strokes depicting the dry earth and bushes by the roadside
