Green Wheat Field with Cypress is an oil-on-canvas painting by Dutch Post-Impressionist artist Vincent van Gogh. It is part of a series of paintings of wheat fields that he painted in 1889 while a voluntary patient in the Saint-Paul asylum in Saint-Rémy-de-Provence, France. Besides a fondness for cypress trees, Van Gogh had a special affinity with wheat fields, depicting them dozens of times over the years; to him, they symbolized the cycle of life and death, and he found in them both solace and inspiration. This painting is now in the collection of the National Gallery Prague.Painting credit: Vincent van Gogh
