"The Postman" (also known as "The Letter Carrier" or "The Postman Joseph Roulin") is a painting by Vincent van Gogh, created in 1889 while the artist was living in Arles, France. The painting depicts Joseph Roulin, a friend of van Gogh's and the postman in Arles, standing in front of a brightly colored background.
Roulin is shown wearing a blue uniform and holding a letter in his hand. His face is heavily lined and weathered, and he has a thick beard and mustache. Behind him is a vibrant green field with a few trees and a blue sky with clouds.
Van Gogh used thick brushstrokes and bold, vibrant colors in the painting, particularly in the background. The overall effect is one of energy and movement, with the postman appearing to be caught in the midst of delivering the mail.
"The Postman" is considered one of van Gogh's most famous portraits and is known for its expressive use of color and brushwork. It is currently housed in the Musée d'Orsay in Paris, France.
