Madame Roulin and Her Baby

Madame Roulin and Her Baby is an 1888 painting by Vincent van Gogh.

Done in oil on canvas, the painting depicts Augustine and Marcelle Roulin, the later of whom was an infant.

The Roulin family became acquaintances of van Gogh after the family's patriarch, postman Joseph Roulin, met Van Gogh following the artist's relocation to the town of Arles.

The painting was produced by Van Gogh six months after the artist moved from Paris to the town of Arles.

[2] The Metropolitan Museum of Art's profile of the work describes the painting as being "vigorously painted", with thick brush strokes being used to capture the infant's expression.
