EDITORS COMMENTS
The Meridian Line, also known as The Siesta, is a captivating oil on canvas painting created by Vincent van Gogh in 1888-1889. This masterpiece can be found at the Musee d'Orsay in Paris, France. In this artwork, van Gogh beautifully captures an agricultural scene set in the late nineteenth century countryside. The painting depicts a tranquil moment where oxen are hitched together to plow the fields under the warm summer sun. The lush green pastures and flower meadows create a picturesque backdrop for this rural setting. The figures in the painting wear traditional clothing, including sombreros and summer attire, adding to the authenticity of the scene. A farmer can be seen using a sickle for mowing or haymaking nearby. Van Gogh's brushstrokes bring life and movement to every element of this composition - from the animals to the landscape itself. His use of vibrant colors and bold textures showcases his unique artistic style. This print captured by Frank Buffetrille allows us to appreciate every intricate detail of van Gogh's work. It serves as a reminder of how art has always been able to transport us back in time and immerse us into different worlds.
