Collection

Art Institute of Chicago

Medium

Oil on canvas, mounted on pressboard

The observation deck beside the windmill on the hill of Montmartre where van Gogh lived, painted in early 1887. Lampposts, railings and people looking out over Paris stand under a grey winter sky. Its quiet tones, just before his turn to bright colour, make people say it does not look like a van Gogh.
