World’s Largest Easel

One of Kansas’ most unique roadside attractions is located right off of I-70 and can be seen (sorta) from the highway.

The World’s Largest Easel in Goodland, Kansas stands 80 feet tall and holds a humongous replica of Vincent Van Gogh’s famous painting, "3 Sunflowers in a Vase.” This version is painted by Cameron Cross.

For the Easel/Van Gogh Project, Cross focused on recreating Van Gogh’s series of sunflower paintings, each one measuring 7 meters x 10 meters. The first easel was erected in Canada, the second in Australia, with the Goodland easel being the third to be installed.
