On day one of our trip in the Van Gogh Museum, Kelsey and I noticed that some of the trees Van Gogh painted looked very odd, knobby, and almost as if he was trying of incorporate figures into the tree branches. Well, after coming to Arles and taking our excursion to St. Remy, where Van Gogh resided as a mental patient in an asylum, we saw that these trees are typical to the landscape of this region. What Van Gogh was portraying was in fact a realistic interpretation of the trees.
