EDITORS COMMENTS
This oil painting, "Madame Roulin and her baby" created by Vincent van Gogh in November 1888, captures a tender moment between a mother and her child. The artwork measures 63.5x51 cm and is currently housed at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York, USA. The subject of the painting is Augustine Roulin, the wife of French postman Joseph Etienne Roulin, along with their infant daughter Marcelle. Van Gogh painted this piece after he relocated to Arles, France. The artist beautifully portrays the love and bond shared between mother and child through his distinct post-impressionist style. In this portrait, Madame Roulin cradles her swaddled baby in her arms while looking directly at the viewer with an expression that seems somewhat unhappy or pensive. The Dutch painter skillfully captures both maternal tenderness and emotional depth within this intimate scene. The warm colors used by Van Gogh evoke a sense of comfort and tranquility as they envelop the figures against a simple background. This masterpiece serves as a testament to the universal theme of motherhood while showcasing Van Gogh's unique artistic vision. "Madame Roulin and her baby" stands as an enduring representation of love, connection, and the timeless beauty found within everyday moments captured on canvas.
