An artful token from the Museum’s gift shop.
Vincent van Gogh (Dutch, 1853–1890) became captivated by cypresses during his convalescence at the asylum in Saint-Rémy. Wheat Field with Cypresses (1889), a highlight of The Met’s collection of European paintings and a detail of which is featured on this artful bookmark, is among his exuberant compositions featuring the towering trees. The ordinarily self-critical artist regarded this painting as one of his “best” summer landscapes.
