Describe the characteristics of the Orchard in Blossom (F511) in Flowering Orchards's Other flowering orchard paintings.
The Van Gogh Museum's version of Orchard in Blossom was painted in April. Vincent asked Theo to "shave off" some of the impasto in this painting. Apparently he did not reline, a process of heavy pressure and heat to flatten the surface, because sharp edges of thick impasto remain on the painting.
