The artwork titled “Two Little Girls” is a portrait created by Vincent van Gogh in 1890 in France. Executed in oil on canvas, this work measures 51.2 by 51 centimeters and belongs to the Cloisonnism art movement. The painting is currently housed in the Musée d’Orsay in Paris, France.
The artwork features two young girls, depicted in a vibrant and expressive style typical of van Gogh. They are positioned close together, with the background painted in bold, swirling colors that create a dynamic contrast to their relatively simple, yet expressive facial features. The girls wear head coverings and simple dresses, rendered in thick, textured strokes of paint. The color palette includes bright yellows, greens, blues, and earth tones, which evoke a sense of warmth and innocence. The use of outlines around forms, a characteristic of Cloisonnism, lends a stained-glass-like effect to the composition. This portrait captures a moment of tender companionship and childhood simplicity.
