ARTIST SERIES - QUILLED ROSES, VAN GOGH GREETING CARD

“Roses” was created in May 1890, the eve before van Gogh left the asylum in Saint-Rémy and just two months before his death. "Roses" was one of four still life paintings in the Saint-Rémy series, "Irises" being another. Renowned for its soothing composition and once vibrant color, "Roses" has significant historical context of van Gogh's struggle with mental health while nearing the end of his recovery journey at the Saint-Rémy asylum.

Quilling is the art of rolling, coiling and shaping small strips of paper to create a cohesive three-dimensional design and has been practiced for centuries. Historians have been able to date the art form back to Ancient Egyptian times where crafters would use a bird’s feather (quill) as the tool to coil the paper upon.
