"Les Tournesols" (French for "The Sunflowers") is the title of two series of still life paintings by the Dutch painter Vincent van Gogh. The first series, executed in Paris in 1887, depicts the flowers lying on the ground, while the second set, made a year later in Arles, shows a bouquet of sunflowers in a vase. The 1888 series, created during Van Gogh's time in the South of France, is the most famous and includes the version often simply referred to as "Sunflowers" (F.456), which is housed in the National Gallery, London.

Van Gogh's sunflowers are among his most iconic and celebrated works, symbolizing his search for light and hope. The 1888 Arles series was painted for the Yellow House, which Van Gogh intended to use as a studio and to decorate the room that would welcome his friend and fellow artist, Paul Gauguin. The sunflowers had a special significance for Van Gogh, representing gratitude and reflecting his interest in color theory; he used the vibrant yellow palette to express the intensity of his emotions.

The "Sunflowers" of 1888 are characterized by their bold, expressive use of color and dramatic, impasto brushwork. Van Gogh's innovative technique and the emotional resonance of the subject matter have made these paintings some of the most famous and reproduced works in the history of art. The series has been celebrated for its depiction of the natural world and is often interpreted as a reflection of the artist's inner life and psychological state.

Van Gogh created a total of five large canvases with sunflowers in a vase, with three shades of yellow 'and nothing else'. In this way, he demonstrated that it was possible to create an image with numerous variations of a single color, without any loss of eloquence. The sunflower paintings had a special significance for Van Gogh: they communicated 'gratitude', he wrote. He hung the first two versions of the series in the room of his friend, the painter Paul Gauguin, who came to live with him for a while in the Yellow House. Gauguin was impressed by the sunflowers, which he thought were 'completely Vincent'. Van Gogh had already agreed to swap one of his sunflower paintings for a work by Gauguin.

The Sunflowers are among the most recognizable paintings in the world and have been reproduced on countless merchandise items and in popular culture. They are considered masterpieces of post-Impressionist art and continue to be admired for their vivid color, emotional depth, and beauty.
