Dance Hall in Arles

The painting represents a lively scene in a café or cabaret with a high concentration of people. The figures are arranged in regular rows with their backs turned and frontal views, the whole appearing somewhat abstract and stylized. The people are depicted in a variety of clothing styles, some wearing hats and wide collars, with musicians visible in the background. The lighting and colours are intense and the painter has captured the atmosphere of the place superbly.

Vincent Willem van Gogh (1853-1890). Dutch painter belonging to Post-Impressionism. His paintings (some 900 paintings and 1,100 drawings and sketches) are among the most famous in the world and are sold for exorbitant sums (except for those in our shop). Parisian Impressionists He lived in Paris from 1886 and was influenced by the use of bright colours - most of his works were painted during this period. In his paintings, Gogh uses contrasting colours (often blue and orange - he said that I want to use colours other contrasts to each of them shone even more to contrast a man and a woman). He was known for his excesses and amputated an ear after the break-up of his friendship with Gauguin. There is a lot of speculation about this incident (he possibly suffered from heavy metal poisoning from paint that had caused mental problems). In 1890, unfortunately he committed suicide.
