“Montmajour” is an artwork by Vincent van Gogh, crafted in 1888 during his time in Arles, Bouches-du-Rhône, France. The medium used is ink on paper and it belongs to the Post-Impressionism movement. The dimensions of the artwork are 49 x 60 cm, and it fits within the landscape genre. Currently, it is housed in the Van Gogh Museum in Amsterdam, Netherlands.
The artwork depicts a rocky, wooded landscape. The composition is rendered with a dynamic use of ink, employing various strokes and hatching techniques to create texture and depth. The rugged terrain, characterized by large boulders and sparse vegetation, is accentuated by the sharp lines and contrasts inherent in Van Gogh’s style. Delicate details in the foliage and ground cover suggest a study of nature, capturing both the complexity and serenity of the setting.
