Abstract
In May 1888, Vincent van Gogh visited the Mediterranean village of Saintes-Maries-de-la-Mer, a site with a unique environment and history. This thesis examines how the specific cultural, social, and physical space of Saintes-Maries is represented in the landscapes Van Gogh produced depicting the town.
