Original – From the article: "Landscape near Arles is an 1888 oil painting by French artist Paul Gauguin, located in the Indianapolis Museum of Art. It depicts a rural scene in Provence."
Reason
High resolution scan of a gorgeous painting. It'll be different to have Gauguin's non-Tahiti works featured.

  • Support Great painting, good scan. --Tremonist (talk) 14:11, 18 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support Though I disagree with the article's assertion that Van Gogh was not a particularly strong influence. Looking at those layered brushstrokes at lower left, I'd argue quite the contrary. Wonderful painting. Vesuvius Dogg (talk) 16:05, 18 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment – there is an Ampersand-shaped dust in blue sky upper left side, shows well at full size. Bammesk (talk) 14:33, 19 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support – as is. The wiggly line has no visible depth, might be embedded in the painting. Any thoughts about removing it? (it is hair thin and spreads over 6x8mm area) Bammesk (talk) 23:23, 20 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment - It's not present on this photo so I would suppose that means it is contamination rather than an integral part of the painting. Given the nature of the image I would be very wary about removing it digitally though - Wolftick (talk) 13:35, 27 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]
