Van Gogh painted 'Roses' in May 1890, during the final three weeks before leaving the hospital in Saint-Remy. Van Gogh saw all blossoming plants as celebrations of birth and renewal, which is shown by the fresh spring green of the background. Originally, the roses were pink, but the colour in the painting has since faded. Inspired by the painting, you can order Van Gogh Roses, a fresh flower arrangement of white and pink roses for delivery with Interflora. Available all year round, this will be an exquisite gift for anyone.
