Last year, the location in Auvers-sur-Oise was discovered by Wouter van der Veen, the scientific director of the Institut Van Gogh. He found a postcard dating from 1900-1910 featuring a scene including tree trunks and roots growing on a hillside.
The recently uncovered image was noticed on the Pontoise Museum blog earlier this year. The photograph shows certain elements not found on the postcard.
