Van Gogh Roses Teapot*The Met Store Sale

Vincent van Gogh (Dutch, 1853–1890) pursued various vocations before deciding to become an artist at the age of 27. Over the course of his decade-long career he produced nearly 900 paintings and more than 1,100 works on paper. Roses, the lush bouquet reproduced in detail on our elegant teapot, is one of four still lifes that Van Gogh completed in 1890, prior to his departure from the asylum in Saint-Rémy.
