Avenue of Poplars in Autumn

Avenue of Poplars in Autumn is the tragic story of Marcel Saint Cloud, a country farmer, who marries Madame Rosemary Vert, a widow used to rubbing shoulders with the aristocracy whose former husband left her with a daughter as well as numerous debts and no money to pay them. The couple manage to overcome many initial difficulties and fall madly in love. Saint Cloud becomes a devoted and adoring husband, and Madame becomes equally as devoted as well as a happy manager of the domestic matters of the farm. Numerous troubles befall them, which Saint Cloud recalls as he strolls through the avenue of poplars that lead to his farmhouse. A sad but beautiful story inspired by the painting of the same name by Vincent Van Gogh.
