Irises is one of several paintings of irises by the Dutch artist Vincent van Gogh, and one of a series of paintings he made at the Saint Paul-de-Mausole asylum in Saint-Rémy-de-Provence, France, in the last year before his death in 1890. This is one of the many paintings completed by the Post-Impressionist artist with strong Japanese influence. During the beginning of his career, he had still not let go of Classic influences, like the dark and gray color pallets and structured compositions. But after having more contact with other modern artists — like the Impressionists and Pointillists — he became more involved in the Japanese aesthetic.
