What was the series inspired by the appreciation of manual laborers that Wheat Field with Cypresses is a part of?
Wheat Field with Cypresses A Wheatfield with Cypresses (occasionally called "A Cornfield with Cypresses") is any of three similar 1889 oil paintings by Vincent van Gogh, as part of his wheat field series. All were executed at the Saint-Paul-de-Mausole mental asylum at Saint-Rémy near Arles, France, where Van Gogh was voluntarily a patient from May 1889 to May 1890. The works were inspired by the view from the window at the asylum towards the Alpilles mountains.
