Painting Description
''La Berceuse (Augustine Roulin) VI'' is a renowned oil painting by Dutch Post-Impressionist artist Vincent van Gogh. Created in Arles, France, in early 1889, this work is the last in a series of five portraits that Van Gogh painted of Augustine Roulin, the wife of the postman Joseph Roulin, who was one of Van Gogh's closest friends during his time in Arles. The title "La Berceuse" translates to "The Lullaby" or "The Woman Rocking a Cradle," reflecting the subject's pose and the intended soothing quality of the painting.
This particular version, often distinguished by its Roman numeral VI, is characterized by its vibrant color palette and the rhythmic patterns that convey a sense of motion and harmony. Van Gogh's use of swirling lines and bold, complementary colors exemplifies his signature style that would come to define the Post-Impressionist movement. The portrait depicts Augustine Roulin seated against a richly patterned background, holding the rope of a cradle out of view, suggesting the presence of a child and the act of rocking.
Van Gogh's interest in creating a series of this subject was partly inspired by his admiration for Eugène Delacroix and Japanese prints, as well as his own desire to express a sense of comfort and maternal tenderness through the rhythmic repetition of the theme. The series of "La Berceuse" portraits is notable for exploring the emotional and symbolic potential of portraiture beyond mere likeness.
"La Berceuse (Augustine Roulin) VI" is not only a testament to Van Gogh's innovative use of color and form but also to the personal connections he formed during his time in Arles. The painting is a reflection of the artist's ongoing quest to capture the essence of his subjects and to evoke specific emotional responses through his art. Today, this work is held in a prominent museum collection and continues to be studied and admired for its artistic significance and the insight it provides into Van Gogh's oeuvre.
