Critical Commentary
Van Gogh painted “Garden of the Hospital in Arles” while staying there as a patient. The hospital was a charitable institution located in Arles (Provence-Alpes-Côte d'Azur). Van Gogh was hospitalized there twice and diagnosed by the hospital with “acute mania with generalised delirium”. The former hospital is now a center for van Gogh’s works.
