Scarves & Wraps*The Met Store Van Gogh Roses Oblong Silk Scarf

Gift her an art-inspired floral scarf.

Vincent van Gogh’s (Dutch, 1853–1890) Roses (1890) is one of four exceptional still lifes completed just before his departure from the asylum in Saint-Rémy. He conceived of this quartet of radiant spring bouquets—which also includes Irises (1890) in The Met collection—as an ensemble. Though the color has since faded, traces of pink nestled in the pillowy petals and along the tabletop hint at the vividness of the artist’s “canvas of pink roses against a yellow-green background in a green vase” in its original state.
