Vincent Van Gogh painted his famous "Iris" series at the Asylum of Saint Paul de Mausole, in Saint-Remy, France, in the Spring of 1889. Allowed to roam the asylum's grounds, Van Gogh began painting almost immediately. In a letter to his brother Theo, Van Gogh wrote: "...you will see that considering my life is spent mostly in the garden, it is not so unhappy." That summer, he wrote: "For one's health it is necessary to work in the garden and see the flowers growing."
(J. Paul Getty Museum exhibit, "Vincent's Irises," 1999).

NEW BLOG!
Visit the THERAPEUTIC LANDSCAPES DATABASE BLOG
for current news, events, and information.

COMING SOON:
NEW THERAPEUTIC LANDSCAPES NETWORK WEBSITE!
The Therapeutic Landscapes Network (formerly the Therapeutic Landscape Database and Resource Center) is growing, and it's time for a website makeover.

We're making more than just cosmetic improvements: The TLN is merging the blog and website (finally!); adding features such as search (finally again) and a "network forum" where we can share ideas, questions, and information with each other. We'll also be adding even more great information and more beautiful, inspiring images. And it will all still be FREE.

The TLN is now inviting designers, health care providers, and product companies to support us by becoming CORPORATE SPONSORS (who will, of course, be recognized on our site for their generosity).
We are the world's largest and most comprehensive knowledge base for landscapes that promote health and well-being. CONTACT US if you're like to become one of our first corporate sponsors.
