1888 - 1890

 

아를에서 빈센트는 파리 시절에 이론적으로 발전시켰지만 지금까지는 일관적으로 사용하지 않았던 새로운 양식으로 그림을 그리기 시작했다. 그가 죽을 때까지 본질적으로 유지했던 이 화법은 우리가 오늘날 빈센트에게서 '전형적' 이라고 느끼는 화법이다. 실제로 그는 그곳에 도착하자마자 전체적인 효과에서 상호상승을 이룰 수 있도록 하기 위해서 보색적인 대비를 이루면서 나란히 사용했던 순수하고, 강력한 색채로 그림을 그렸다. 그러면서 그는 '지방색', 다시 말하자면 대상의 자연적인 색을 넘어섰다. 종종 그는 색채를 과장하거나 그가 각각의 그림을 위해서 발전시킨 색채 체계에 적합하도록 사용했다. 또한 빈센트는 이 기간 동안 일본화를 접하고 관련 작품을 열렬히 모으기 시작했다. 그는 일본화의 밝은 색채와 캔버스 공간의 사용, 그림에서 보인 선의 역할에 감탄했으며, 이러한 인상은 그에게 강하게 영향을 주었다.
