“Vase with Irises” is an artwork executed by Vincent van Gogh in 1890 in Saint-Rémy-de-Provence, France. The piece, which measures 92.1 by 73.7 cm, is painted in oil on canvas and belongs to the Post-Impressionism art movement. It is categorized under the genre of flower painting.
The artwork depicts a bouquet of irises placed in a simple white vase against a subtle, light background.
