Adeline Ravoux, 1890. Creator: Vincent van Gogh (Dutch, 1853-1890).

Adeline Ravoux, 1890. In May 1890, Van Gogh left the south and settled in Auvers, a small town north of Paris, where he rented a room at the inn of Arthur Ravoux. This portrait, completed during the last months of the artist’s life, depicts Ravoux’s 13-year-old daughter, Adeline. Van Gogh wrote that rather than photographic resemblance, he wanted his portraits to convey the "impassioned aspects" of contemporary life through the "modern taste for colour." Bequest of Leonard C. Hanna Jr. 1958.31.
