Green Wheat Fields, Auvers was painted during Van Goghâs final months in Auvers-sur-Oise, a village just north of Paris. This work is a âpure landscapeâ in that there is no visible motif beyond the grassy field, road, and sky; there are no animals or figures, but instead lush flora whipped up by the wind.
Vincent Van Gogh painted 900 paintings and 1,100 drawings and sketches. His best works were done near the end of his life (committed suicide). <br /><br /> Van Gogh suffered many bouts of depression and after a breakdown he cut off his left ear during a seizure Dec. 24, 1888. It has been said that the psychiatrists thought Absinthe was the cause of yellow vision and thus, that's why Van Gogh used so many yellows in his paintings.
