Almond Blossoms is a group of several paintings made in 1888 and 1890 by Vincent van Gogh in Arles and Saint-Rémy, southern France of blossoming almond trees. Flowering trees were special to Van Gogh. They represented awakening and hope. He enjoyed them aesthetically and found joy in painting flowering trees. The works reflect Impressionist, Divisionist and Japanese woodcut influences. Almond Blossoms was made to celebrate the birth of his nephew and namesake, son of his brother Theo and sister-in-law Jo.

To reflect the early signs of spring, he used delicate brushstrokes and pastel shades for Blossoming Almond Branch in a Glass.

Van Gogh wrote to his brother, “Down here it is freezing hard and there is still snow in the countryside,” and he has “two small studies of an almond-tree branch already in flower in spite of it.” The two studies are Blossoming Almond Branch in a Glass and Blossoming Almond Branch in a Glass with a Book.
