Painted by Vincent Van Gogh, Poppy Flowers, also known as
Vase and Flowers, depicts yellow and red poppy flowers on a
dark background and is small in size, measuring only 65 x 54
centimeters. Van Gogh is believed to have painted this work
three years before his suicide and was created out of Van
Gogh's admiration for Adolphe Monticelli.
Poppy Flowers
The colors are bold, and the background is picked out with
dramatic, impulsive brush strokes. Like most of his works, this
painting is oil on canvas. The location of the painting is
unknown after its theft in 2010 from the Mohamed Mahmoud
Khalil Museum, Egypt. Although, the theft in 2010 was not the first time the painting
had been snatched; it was stolen from the same museum in
June 1977 but was found ten years later in Kuwait. To this day,
the painting's whereabouts are a mystery without any lead.
