La Mousmé is an oil painting on canvas completed by Vincent van Gogh in 1888. Inspired by Pierre Loti's novel Madame Chrysanthème and Japanese artwork, it depicts what van Gogh called "a Japanese girl—Provençal in this case—twelve to fourteen years old." She wears an outfit from the Arles region of southern France, and her coloration is that of a girl from the region, but with a Japanese influence. The painting is now held by the National Gallery of Art in Washington, D.C. Painting: Vincent van Gogh Recently featured:
