With Montblanc Masters of Art Homage to Vincent van Gogh Limited Edition 4810, Montblanc celebrates Vincent van Gogh, one of the most celebrated painters of the nineteenth century. In particular, this edition evokes the period that the artist spent in Arles, with decorative details that recall the wheat fields of Provence, as well as one of his most famous paintings: "Sunflowers". The number 1888 engraved on the body ring - next to Vincent's signature in bright orange - recalls the year he moved to Arles. The body is decorated in shades of yellow and orange that evoke the sunny landscapes of southern France, while the famous series of five sunflower paintings inspired the embossed version on the handmade nib in solid gold Au 750 rhodium finish. Van Gogh developed a freer and more flexible style and became skilled with both the brush and the spatula, which he used to spread thicker and more impetuous strokes of color, creating works with "impasto" painting. Its spatula inspired the platinum-finish clip, while its broad brushstrokes are evoked by the yellow lacquer on top of the cap. In addition, his passion for the pipe, present in many of his self-portraits, is captured in a refined detail of the clip: the upper part has the shape of the head of a pipe and is filled with precious yellow resin. In homage to Vincent's love of traditional Japanese woodcuts, the overall shape is inspired by a Japanese carving knife, while the cap is made of wood. The edition is crowned by a Montblanc emblem in fine yellow resin.
