Two Poplars in the Alpilles near Saint-Rémy

Two tall poplars with golden-yellow foliage rise above a hillside of green shrubs, pale stone walls and a winding white path, under a swirling blue sky. Thick, swirling oil brushstrokes build the texture across sky, trees and ground, giving the landscape a vigorous, energetic surface.

Dos álamos altos de follaje amarillo dorado se elevan sobre una ladera de arbustos verdes, muros de piedra pálida y un sendero blanco serpenteante, bajo un cielo azul remolinado. Pinceladas gruesas y sinuosas de óleo construyen la textura del cielo, los árboles y el suelo, dando al paisaje una superficie vigorosa y enérgica.
