Diary (Vincent van Gogh: The Blossoming Almond Branch) - Flame Tree Publishing

Part of the exciting and luxurious Flame Tree notebook series. Combining high-quality production with stunning artwork, the covers are printed on foil in five colours, embossed, and then foil-embossed again. They are incredibly practical: a rear pocket for receipts and scraps, two bookmarks, and a sturdy magnetic side flap. Perfect for personal use and an eye-catching gift. This example features Vincent van Gogh's “Branch of Blooming Almond Tree”.

When Vincent van Gogh arrived in Arles in March 1888, he wrote to his brother: “It is very cold here, and there is still snow in the countryside – I am doing a study of the whitewashed landscape with the town in the background. And then two small studies of an almond branch, which is already blooming despite everything.
