《鸢尾花》于1889年5月完成。同向日葵一样,凡高似乎也喜欢画这种植物。
1892年,唐基(凡高的朋友)以300法郎的价格将这幅画卖给了评论家奥克塔夫·米尔博--凡高最早的赏识者之一。这幅画像许多其他的凡高的画一样,在他死后不断地买卖。1988年在拍卖会上,有人叫出了5300万美元的天价。“这件事为现代美术家的成功定下了新的标准”(见《凡高的历程》)
1990年7月29日的《纽约时报》上出现了一则匿名公告。(见下)
“公告坚决主张文化和商业之间要保持道义上的距离,并且代表凡高对人们提出严厉的劝告:‘艺术的价值与金钱毫不相干’”(见《凡高的历程》)

died100years ago today.We owe it to memory of his achivement,and the manner in which it was achieved,to remember the following:artists must search for truth with integrity;dealers must keep in mind that the importance of art has nothing whatsoever to do with money;critics must recognizetheir responsibility to make every effort to be correct in their judgements; appreciators must experience works of art with the same degree of effort and integrity as the artists who created them.
