THIS COTTON LINEN CROP TOP SAREE HAS BEEN INSPIRED FROM VAN GOGH’S PINE TREE AGAINST AN EVENING SKY. THE COLOUR PALETTE USED IN THIS SAREE IS RICH. THE PINE TREES MADE ON THE CROP TOP HAVE BEEN MADE USING MACHINE WORK WITH COLOURS THAT COMPLIMENT THE COLOUR OF THE FABRIC. THE CROP TOP HAS A PUFF SLEEVE AND CAN ALSO BE WORN AS A WESTERN WEAR.
ABOUT PAINTING- VAN GOGH ACHIEVED HIS MOST BEAUTIFUL EFFECT OF BRANCHES WITH FOLIAGE AGAINST THE SKY IN THE PINE TREES AGAINST AN EVENING SKY. IN REALITY, THE SCALE OF THE OVERALL SCENE IS SUCH THAT IT CANNOT BE TAKEN IN AT ONE GLANCE, AND TO PAINT THE TREES AND THE SKY LIKE THAT VAN GOGH WOULD HAD TO GAZE UP ABOVE HIS HEAD. THE ARTIST WAS THE OPINION THAT THE PICTURE HE PROVIDED HERE OF THE ASYLUM WAS FAIRLY PLEASANT AND HIS AIM HAD INDEED BEEN TO ‘RECONSTRUCT IT AS IT MIGHT HAVE BEEN BY SIMPLIFYING AND ACCENTUATING THE PROUD AND IMMUTABLE CHARACTER OF THE PINES AND THE CLUMPS OF CEDAR AGAINST THE BLUE.
