Saintes-Maries-de-la-Mer, Vincent Van Gogh

In late June 1888, Vincent made an excursion to Saintes-Maries-de-la-Mer, a small fishing town on the coast near Arles.  He stayed here for 2 weeks, breathing in the briny air, learning about the simple, fulfilling lives of the fisherfolk, and painting their boats, their cottages and the green-blue sea on which they made their living.


This should be a very interesting and beautiful challenge to complete!
