    • 691 To Theo van Gogh. Arles, on or about Saturday, 29 September 1888. Vincent van Gogh: The Letters. Van Gogh Museum. "Likewise croquis of a square no. 30 canvas showing the house and its surroundings under a sulphur sun, under a pure cobalt sky. That’s a really difficult subject! But I want to conquer it for that very reason. Because it’s tremendous, these yellow houses in the sunlight and then the incomparable freshness of the blue.
      All the ground’s yellow, too. I’ll send you another, better drawing of it than this croquis from memory; the house to the left is pink, with green shutters; the one that’s shaded by a tree, that’s the restaurant where I go to eat supper every day. My friend the postman lives at the bottom of the street on the left, between the two railway bridges. The night café that I painted isn’t in the painting; it’s to the left of the restaurant.
      Milliet finds it horrible ..."
    • 693 To Eugène Boch. Arles, Tuesday, 2 October 1888. Vincent van Gogh: The Letters. Van Gogh Museum. "And a view of my house and its surroundings under a sulphur sun, the sky hard, bright cobalt. That’s a difficult one!" More info at museum site

    Licensing

    This is a faithful photographic reproduction of a two-dimensional, public domain work of art. The work of art itself is in the public domain for the following reason:
    Public domain

    The author died in 1890, so this work is in the public domain in its country of origin and other countries and areas where the copyright term is the author's life plus 100 years or fewer.


    This work is in the public domain in the United States because it was published (or registered with the U.S. Copyright Office) before January 1, 1928.

    The official position taken by the Wikimedia Foundation is that "faithful reproductions of two-dimensional public domain works of art are public domain".
    This photographic reproduction is therefore also considered to be in the public domain in the United States. In other jurisdictions, re-use of this content may be restricted; see Reuse of PD-Art photographs for details.
