Were they just flowers? Or symbols of pain, hope, and human fragility? Vincent van Gogh's sunflowers have shone on canvas for more than 130 years\u2014but their true meaning remains shrouded in mystery.<\/strong><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

When we think of Vincent van Gogh today, an explosion of yellow tones immediately comes to mind \u2013 his legendary sunflowers<\/strong>, which became not only his visual mark, but also a key to understanding his inner self. \u201cThe sunflower is mine,\u201d Vincent once wrote. It was a declaration of ownership, but also an emotional confession. But what was he really looking for in them?<\/p>\n

More than just flowers: Sunflowers as a cry to the world<\/h2>\n

Van Gogh painted a total of 11 paintings with sunflowers<\/strong>. The first were created in Paris in 1887, but his most famous works were created a year later in Arles \u2013 in the south of France, where he dreamed of founding an artistic commune. At that time, he was anxiously awaiting the arrival of Paul Gauguin. Sunflowers were to decorate his room \u2013 they were a sign of friendship, expectation and artistic togetherness. But as we know, their cohabitation ended tragically and Van Gogh ended up alone \u2013 mentally broken.<\/p>\n
