Description
(Copyright Mel Steinhauer all rights reserved) In the late 1880s, an artist from the Netherlands came to this place during the latter years of his life. Struggling with depression and recurring battles with his inner demons, he had cut off a portion of his ear so he arrived at this hospital as a patient. As he walked these hallways during his stay, even during his depression he was able to create more beautiful paintings of the garden, courtyard and other locations in the city of Arles in the south of France. Sadly, Van Gogh later on decided to take his own life. Today he is of course recognized as a great artist and his paintings are admired all over the world. So one day as I walked around this place, I reflected on his life, his art and I discovered that... Vincent Was Here.
I created this image from my original photograph taken on location by adding digital enhancements, textures and painterly-style effects. These effects and image details will become more visible by clicking inside the green square magnifier as the cursor is placed over the image.
PLEASE NOTE: Our professional printing facilities have a feature for customers who desire artwork prepared for them to be in standard sizes such as 8 x 10, 11 x 14, 16 x 20, 24 x 30, 36 x 24 and so on. When you select your image to purchase, from the SIZE tab choose a VERTICAL, HORIZONTAL or SQUARE format. Notice that some portions of my original image may not be included in these cropped formats. The NATURAL format is the way I composed the image in camera or during final processing. Sometimes this would create an image size which required the use of non-standard mats or frames. So go ahead and see for yourself, by viewing my images in these new formats to decide which one may (or may not) best suit your needs or style of wall art. Of course, you may always choose the NATURAL format and purchase my art as it was originally composed and created.
Many thanks and best wishes!
