A good example of this is The Tarascon Diligence which, like the paintings preceding it, was intended to decorate the yellow house. Van Gogh greatly admired Alphonse Daudet's Tartarin de Tarascon, published in 1872, which includes in its cast of characters a talking diligence, or horse-drawn carriage, from Tarascon, which complains about its banishment to Algeria. On 13 October he wrote to Theo and asked: 'Have you re-read Tartarin yet? Don't forget! Do you remember the wonderful part in it with the lament of the old Tarascon diligence? Well, I have just painted the same vehicle in red and green in the courtyard of the inn'.
