On a canvas of 165x125mm, a new minting technique called “Tri-metal” was applied to give this piece its remarkable weight while keeping its proportions true to the actual painting. This is made possible by combining 750g of 999 fine Zinc as a center layer and 120g of 999 fine copper as a base with a top layer of 2.5 oz of 999 fine silver, resulting in a high relief. This is a limited edition of 399 pieces only. “Country Road in Provence by Night” is a poignant and evocate masterpiece created by Vincent van Gogh in 1890 during his time in his stay at the Saint-de-Mausole asylum in Saint Remy-e-Provence. France. This nocturnal scene, created in the throes of the artist’s emotional and creative turmoil, offers a mesmerizing glimpse into van Gogh’s profound connection with nature and the depth of his artistic expression. The painting depicts a rural scene at night, dominated by a tree-lined path that winds into the distance. Imbued with a scene of mystery and contemplation. The cypresses in this painting also hold a deeper significance to Van Gogh as they are deep sources of inspiration and emotional resonance to the artist. The tress’ forms of reaching upward into the luminous night sky conveys a scene of longing and a quest for a higher understanding, a theme that resonates with the artist’s own spiritual explorations.
