The Final Years of Van Gogh’s Life | The Cox Collection | Christie's
Beyond the fact that the final years of Van Gogh’s life were amongst his most prolific, the works he created are also amongst his most personally revealing. ‘It’s a once-in-a-career opportunity to work with a collection that has three works that tell the story of Van Gogh’s mature period in such a beautiful and profound way,’ says Fusco on The Cox Collection: The Story of Impressionism being offered this November at Christie’s.
She continues: ‘The works represent three of the most important places in Van Gogh’s career, and you can see the incredible development of the artist. Meules de blé from 1888 in Arles is very experimental but still naturalistically depicted and coloured, while in Cabanes de bois parmi les oliviers et cyprès from 1889 in Saint-Rémy, the artist is already significantly more expressionistic, and the brushstrokes are gestural and sweeping. By 1890 in Auvers-sur-Oise, where he painted Jeune homme au bleuet, there is this climax of creativity before he dies. There’s this thick impasto, and if you view the details of this portrait up close, it is basically abstract. This is really the moment that his style crystallised as we know it today.’

The transcription is not fully faithful. There are some invented words that substitute the original terms.

I'm guessing they picked the prettiest youngest college art history student & didn't care if she could speak or if she even knew about art. It's the internet. Sad to say.

It’s not Arl is Arles. In French you pronounce the last LES . It’s only mute when the word ends on E. An expert in Van Gogh that doesn’t speak French. The head of the art History department in my University will give you a bad grade. How can you do research if don’t speak the language? This is we’re we stand with these second hand experts!

Only in Occitan, a language some people still speak, its "Arle"...in normal French you pronounce it "Arl" because the "les" in Arles is not the "les" you use for plural, if it was, then you would say "Arle"

Difficult to understand the bad English..
It's difficult to get past the narrator's "valley girl" manner of speaking. Whenever I hear it being spoken by young women it makes me want to turn the sound down. Just my opinion, of course.

Many Art Historians are terrible public speakers. I was an Art History major, Smith College & was turned off by so many lecturers. It's a pity.

I asked my wife who is a music teacher originally from Oregon who says she is probably a ‘soccer mom’ (referring to her age) from the Mid West. Very strange.

Please can you explain who ‘Van Go’ is ... ? And pray who is ‘Theo Van Go’ ? What pronouncing planet are you on ? ‘It’s really Van Go at his finest’ you really have very little credibility when you can not pronounce Vincent Van Gogh’s name correctly. Ps. C’mon ... at least get Vincent’s name right. ‘Van Go’ ... embarrassing

I agree. She talks like a frog that ran out of breath.
Talking about at a $40m Van Gogh for Christie's and you put someone on with vocal fry and upspeak.
