"Haystack, near Arles" is an oil painting by the French post-Impressionist artist Paul Gauguin, created during his time in the south of France. This work is part of a series of paintings that Gauguin produced while he was living in Arles, a period that is often noted for his association with Vincent van Gogh. The painting depicts a rural scene with a haystack as the central focus, reflecting Gauguin's interest in the lives of peasants and the countryside, themes that were common in his work after he turned away from the urban environment and Impressionist style.

The painting is characterized by its bold use of color and simplified forms, hallmarks of Gauguin's mature style that would later be categorized as Symbolist due to its emphasis on color and form over representational accuracy. "Haystack, near Arles" showcases Gauguin's departure from naturalistic depiction towards a more abstracted, emotional representation of the landscape. The composition and palette may also reflect the influence of the cloisonnism technique, which Gauguin admired for its flat planes of color bordered by dark outlines, reminiscent of stained glass or Japanese prints.

While the exact date of creation for "Haystack, near Arles" is not specified, it is believed to have been painted around 1888, during Gauguin's nine-week stay with Van Gogh. This period was a significant and tumultuous time for both artists, culminating in the infamous incident where Van Gogh severed his own ear. Despite the personal challenges, their time together was artistically fruitful, leading to a series of works that were influential in the development of modern art.

"Haystack, near Arles" is not only an example of Gauguin's exploration of rural themes but also an important piece that reflects the artist's evolving style and his contributions to the post-Impressionist movement. The painting's current location, provenance, and exhibition history are essential for understanding its place within Gauguin's oeuvre and the broader context of late 19th-century art.
