248 Digital Collectables will be available to purchase for £90.00 via credit card and ETH, available via public sale while supplies last at ElmonX.com.

Vincent van Gogh’s “Meules de blé,” painted in June 1888 during his Provençal summer in Arles, captures the vibrant harvest scene with towering wheat stacks. This series marked the peak of his artistic output. Influenced by Japonisme, Van Gogh revolutionized drawing during this time, combining bold lines and vivid color. The Millet-esque depiction of women harvesting wheat symbolizes his deep connection to farm life. The painting’s journey through collections reflects historical events, including anti-Jewish persecution and art confiscation during the Nazi regime. For collectors like Miriam Caroline Alexandrine de Rothschild, recovering looted art became a post-war mission.

Vincent van Gogh, recovering from a mental breakdown, expressed a fierce determination for work in a letter to his brother. This resolve fueled an extraordinary burst of creativity in autumn 1889 during his stay in Saint-Rémy-de-Provence. Amidst the Provençal landscape, he painted “Cabanes de bois parmi les oliviers et cyprès” in October 1889, capturing the sun-drenched scenery with olive trees and cypresses. Van Gogh, residing in Saint-Paul-de-Mausole, an asylum on the outskirts of Saint-Rémy, found solace and inspiration in the surroundings. His fascination with olive trees, depicted in a series of works, symbolized his struggle and served as a tonic for his mental well-being. The painting, acquired by his brother Theo and later passing through notable collections, reflects Van Gogh’s mature style and his profound connection to the vibrant landscape of Provence.
