Memory of the Garden at Etten (Ladies of Arles) is an oil painting by Vincent van Gogh. It was executed in Arles around November 1888 and is in the collection of the Hermitage Museum. It was intended as decoration for his bedroom at the Yellow House

In Gauguin's painting the figure of the older woman is recognisably Madame Ginoux who ran the Café de la Gare where Vincent had lodged and which he and Gauguin continued to patronise after moving into the nearby Yellow House.

In the picture of Gauguin, Madame Gina, who ran the Cafe de la Gar, where Vincent lived, recognizes the figure of an elderly woman, whom he and Gauguin continue to support after moving to the neighbouring Yellow House. The figures of Vincent are usually considered his sister Willemen and mother. However, Vincent's biographer Marc Tralbaut felt that the young woman, knowingly or unconsciously, was a representative of Kee Vos Stricker. He puzzled over it in a letter to his sister.

Finally, Gauguin arrived on 23 October 1888 to find Van Gogh in a state of near nervous exhaustion brought on by the excitement of his friend's arrival. Memory of the Garden at Etten was painted in November, a few weeks after Gauguin had moved in with Van Gogh and shows his influence, and also something of Pierre Puvis de Chavannes (1824-98), an artist that both Van Gogh and Gauguin greatly admired. Both artists painted the subject, working side-by-side, but it was an arrangement that would not last long. By mid-October Gauguin had written to Theo explaining that the two were simply incompatible and that he would soon be returning to Paris.

This painting was produced at Arles, in Provence, to which van Gogh moved in February 1888, embarking upon 15 months of frenetic painting - he produced over 200 canvases, despite or perhaps because of his depression and nervous crises. This painting recalls his native Holland and the garden of his parents' house at Etten. The artist's impressions of the bright sun and resonant colours of the south were combined with nostalgia for home. Working in Arles alongside Gauguin, he came under the strong influence of the latter's style, which can be seen in the flattened space and the broad areas of colour outlined with thick contours. But van Gogh's powerful romantic temperament demanded expression in a more dramatic style that was to be found in Gauguin's work, and he used intense colouring and rough surface texture to create an individual artistic language which expressed both the energy and drama of life.

How we paint

We believe we have some of the most talented reproduction artists in our studio. They are educated and experienced artists who have spent many years studying the techniques and palette of the artists whose work they recreate. We guarantee that every one of our oil paintings is 100% hand-painted. All our painting reproductions are done in the traditional way the original artist would paint. The oil painting reproductions are usually completed within 2 or 3 weeks, subject to size and drying time. At every stage of the oil painting, it is checked thoroughly by two separate members of our team. For the final step, a highly accomplished senior artist will be called in to offer a professional opinion and render the final approval. 

In general, there are 3 main steps to finish an oil painting:

Step 1: Each oil painting starts life as a bare canvas, which is then stretched over the frame and a gesso primer is applied. The painting is then sketch out by the artist and their palette is prepared.


Step 2:  The artist will outline the painting with the main parts of color. Then the oil painting is meticulously recreated, brushstroke for brushstroke. 


Step 3:  Oil painting will be painted in more detail to reflect the spirit of the museum quality painting.

How we pack


Our oil paintings are shipped rolled in a sturdy tube ready for stretching and/or framing by your local outlet.

We do not sell frames with the painting. There are reasons for this.
  • Frames are very personal and we leave the decision to you.
  • Every home has its own design and architectural characteristic, therefore it is usually best that our customers choose and decide the frame to match their decoration.

However, all paintings are prepared with a large clean white border 4cm (1.6"} so that your local framer can easily stretch your painting. This also means that paintings can be stretched over the wooden frame, with or without the requirement of a decorative frame. It also offers a very contemporary method of display with the added advantage of being an economic option!
