Additional information:
- Flowering Plum Orchard, is the second oil painting selected by Visconti from Van Gogh’s Japanese series. The artist made this painting in 1887 from a Japanese engraving by Hiroshige, called Plum Garden in Kameido. The ancient plum tree that was the subject of the original print had the poetic nickname “the sleeping dragon plum tree”. Van Gogh faithfully reproduced the composition with more intense colors by replacing the black and gray of the Hiroshige tree trunk with red and blue tones. He also added the two orange borders with Japanese characters for a decorative and exotic effect.
