Grass and Butterflies
The story
Van Gogh looks straight down into a tangle of meadow grasses with butterflies flickering through it. No sky, no horizon — just short strokes of green, yellow, blue and red woven into a shimmering patch of ground. Painted in 1887, when he was studying Japanese prints.
