1889
Kröller-Müller Museum, Otterlo, Netherlands


Although December was a cold month, van Gogh worked in the garden producing studies of pine trees in a storm and other work.[25]


Van Gogh may have given Pine Trees with Figure in the Garden of Saint-Paul Hospital to Doctor Joseph Peyron; his name is the first in the provenance for the work.[26]


Pine Trees and Dandelions includes "a pine trunk, pink and purple, and then the grass with some white flowers and dandelions, a little rose bush and some other tree trunks in the background right at the top of the canvas," Van Gogh wrote in a letter to his brother in May 1890.
