Corner in the Garden of Saint‑Paul Hospital, A by Vincent van Gogh

It was painted in early summer at the time van Gogh was staying at the Hospital St Paul at St Rémy. It appears to be a view of the hospital garden itself. Van Gogh drew a great deal of inspiration from the large garden around the hospital where he'd had himself admitted in 1889.

Vincent spent a year (8 May 1889 to 16 May 1890) in an asylum in Saint-Rémy de Provence and painted many of his most famous works there.
