To decorate the room he had prepared for his friend, he painted sunflowers — a series of still lifes in the yellows and golds and turquoise blues of the Provençal summer, conceived as a symphony of colour and a gesture of welcome. Four of those canvases survive as the most celebrated flower paintings in the history of art. Each size in this collection features a different one.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eThe \u003cstrong\u003e110-piece puzzle\u003c\/strong\u003e carries \u003cstrong\u003eFifteen Sunflowers\u003c\/strong\u003e (National Gallery, London, August 1888) — the most iconic of the series, fifteen sunflowers in a terracotta vase against a warm yellow background, the canvas Van Gogh considered his finest floral work.
