Arles, located in the Bouches-du-Rhône department of the Provence-Alpes-Côte d'Azur region, is a city rich in artistic heritage and has inspired renowned artists like Vincent van Gogh and Paul Gauguin, who captured its beauty through their masterpieces. In "The Drawbridge, " painted by Vincent van Gogh in March 1888, we see the artist's fascination with Arles' architectural wonders. The old bridge stands tall against a vibrant sky, showcasing the city's historical charm. Paul Gauguin's "Old Women of Arles" from the Volpini Suite depicts local women adorned with traditional attire. This print captures their grace and resilience as they navigate daily life in this picturesque town. Another artwork that transports us to Arles is "Deux arlesiennes dans le cloitre de Saint-Trophime d'Arles. " This photograph taken around 1854 showcases two elegantly dressed women standing within the tranquil courtyard of Saint-Trophime Church. "The Bedroom, " another iconic piece by Van Gogh, portrays his personal space while residing in Arles. The vibrant colors and unique perspective reflect his emotional connection to this place he called home for some time. Gauguin's "Arlesiennes (Mistral)" highlights the strong Mistral wind that characterizes this region. Through bold brushstrokes and vivid colors, he captures both the strength and vulnerability of these local women battling nature's forces. Charles Nègre's photograph titled "Arles, Porte des Châtaignes" takes us back to 1852 when grand gates guarded entrances into this historic city. Its intricate details remind us of Arles' rich architectural history. The stunning portals of Saint-Trophime Church are beautifully captured by Edouard Baldus in his photographs "[Portail;Entree Du Cloitre]" and "[Church of Saint-Honorat, Arles].
