Montblanc Limited Edition Masters Of Art Homage To Vincent Van Gogh Fountain Pen

With this Montblanc Masters of Art Homage to Vincent van Gogh Limited Edition 4810 fountain pen, Montblanc pays tribute to Vincent van Gogh, one of the most popular artists of the late 19th century. This edition was inspired by his time in Arles and features design details that reflect Provençal wheat fields and one of his most famous paintings, Sunflowers.

Design Elements:

As a tribute to Vincent's fascination with traditional Japanese woodblock prints, the overall shape is inspired by a Japanese wood-cutting knife (hangi-toh), while the cap is made of wood.
The artist's love of pipe smoking, which he attests to in many of his self-portraits, is captured in one fine detail of the clip: the top is shaped like a pipe and is filled with yellow precious resin. The lower part is inspired by a special knife used for the Impasto technique.
The engraved number 1888 (next to Vincent's signature in bright orange, taken from the Sunflower painting) marks the year he moved to Arles.
The body is decorated in shades of yellow and orange, reflecting the sunny landscapes of southern France that can also be found in his artwork.
The interpretation stamped on the nib was inspired by his famous series of five drawings of sunflowers.
