Notes
English: At the end of 1889, Van Gogh painted three versions of this picture of women gathering olives. He described the first as an on-the-spot study "in deeper tones from nature" (private collection) and distinguished the second as a studio rendition in a "very discreet color scheme" (National Gallery of Art, Washington, D.C.). The present work, the most resolved and stylized of the three, was intended for his sister and mother, to whom Van Gogh wrote: "I hope that the picture of the women in the orchard of olive trees will be a little to your liking—I sent a drawing of it to Gauguin, . . . and he thinks it good. . . ."[1]
