“i have a view of the rhône—the trinquetaille iron bridge, where the sky and the river are the color of absinthe—the quays a lilac tone, the people leaning on the parapet almost black, the iron bridge an intense blue—with a bright orange note in the blue background and an intense veronese green note” (letter 634 in l. Jansen, h. Luijten and n. Bakker, eds. , op. Cit. , 2009, p. 158). This is how vincent van gogh described le pont de trinquetaille, a radical work painted during a moment of extraordinary productivity in arles in june 1888.
