Features: Van Gogh loved to paint sunflowers. In his view, this flower was not only a symbol of sunshine and life but also an epitome of his passionate inner emotions. In such works, Van Gogh used strong, stimulating emotional tones and rapid, swirling thick brushstrokes to create a tight dynamic in the composition. His passion surged like a rushing river, often blending with the brilliant scenery under scorching sunlight. Therefore, people called him a "painter who burns with life!"
