Olive groves around Saint-Remy become another favorite motif of Van Gogh. He wrote about ten pictures with their image. The letters explain that the artist did not want to relate olive groves images with the Biblical theme, fashionable in the late XIX century. Prisoner in the hospital, Van Gogh wrote: "I ​​do not need nothing but a few patches of land, eared wheat, olive groves, cypress - which not so easy to do."
