About the painting
Olive Trees was painted in 1889, during the Saint-Rémy years. The grove outside the asylum, painted repeatedly because Vincent could not get the movement of the leaves right.
The original is held by Museum of Modern Art, New York, and its palette runs to olive green, blue, ochre. That palette is what we print from — not a colour-boosted version of it.
What this product is
A ceramic mug printed with a public-domain reproduction. White ceramic, 330 ml, dishwasher safe. Wrap-around print, 20 cm wide, with a 1 cm white margin at the handle.
It is not an original artwork, not a limited edition, not signed and not numbered. Vincent van Gogh died in 1890, so the painting itself is out of copyright everywhere — which is the only reason a print of it can exist. A print is still a print, and the difference matters when you decide what goes on your wall.
Colour, screen and cloth
Screens emit light; pigment and dyed cotton reflect it. A printed surface always reads denser and less luminous than a backlit display, and textile prints lose a little of the finest brushwork to the weave. If you need to match a specific wall or outfit, ask us for a physical proof before ordering.
