Café Table with Absinth

Vincent van Gogh’s Café Table with Absinth captures the essence of a quiet café scene. Painted in 1887, it is part of his still life series where he frequently explored the subject of café settings and drinks. This piece, which prominently features a glass of absinthe, reflects Van Gogh’s vivid use of color, particularly the greens associated with absinthe. The background of the café provides context and atmosphere, making it a compelling representation of Parisian life in the late 19th century.
