Courtesy of The Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York
Perfect for welcoming a new baby or celebrating Mother's Day, this portrait pulses with the confusion of being welcomed into a new world. Against a blazing yellow background, Van Gogh renders both mother and child with expressive force, distilling their bond into something almost mythic. The mood is sentimental, earthy, and boldly affectionate.
