L'Arlesienne: Madame Joseph-Michel Ginoux - Hand-Painted Art Reproduction

L'Arlesienne (Madame Ginoux), or Portrait of Madame Ginoux are titles given to six paintings by Vincent van Gogh, painted in Arles, November 1888 (or later) and in Auvers, February 1890.
Marie Jullian (or Julien), born in Arles June 8, 1848 and died there August 2, 1911, married Joseph-Michel Ginoux in 1866. Together they ran the Cafe de la Gare, 30 Place Lamartine, where Van Gogh lodged from May to mid September 1888, when he had the Yellow House in Arles furnished to settle there.
Evidently until this time, Van Gogh's relations to the Ginoux's had remained more or less commercial, but Gauguin's arrival in Arles altered the situation: His courtship charmed the elderly lady, then just 40 years of age, and in the very first days of November 1888 (November 1st, or more probably November 2nd) Madame Ginoux agreed to have a portrait session for Paul Gauguin, and his friend Van Gogh. Within a little hour, Gauguin produced a charcoal drawing, while Vincent slashed a full-scale painting.
