During much of his stay there he was confined to the grounds of the asylum, and he made paintings of the garden, the enclosed wheat field that he could see outside his room and a few portraits of individuals at the asylum.
Still Life: Vase with Pink Roses Still Life: Vase with Pink Roses was painted in 1890 by Vincent van Gogh in Saint-Rémy.

The painting reflects the optimism Van Gogh felt at that time about his future, both in his choice of flowers as a subject and the colors used. The painting is owned by the National Gallery of Art of Washington, D.C.
