Vincent Van Gogh. The Mulberry Tree in Autumn (the mulberry tree in automn) Autumn 1889. Oil on canvas, 54 x 65 cm. Norton Simon Museum, Pasadena, California. " here, the flamboyant foliage of the mulberry, the sky and the hill are so richly painted that the surface of the image becomes a kind of sculpture in low relief. Van Gogh was particularly happy with this painting, writing in letters to his brothers and sisters that he considered it to be the most successful treatment of his theme."
