Van Gogh voluntarily entered the psychiatric hospital of Saint-Paul-de-Mausole at Saint-Rémy in March 1889. Over the course of the year he spent in his two rooms at Saint-Rémy, Van Gogh painted approximately 150 works, many depicting, in his typical impasto style, the grounds and interiors of the asylum.
