Van Gogh Museum, Netherlands.
In May 1888, Vincent van Gogh leased four rooms in a two-story building on the Place Lamartine in Arles, France. He called it the Yellow House, after the warm, buttery color of paint on the exterior walls, and he would soon paint a portrait of the house in the tones of yellow that he now regarded as his signature color. Vincent van Gogh planned to cover the interior walls of the Yellow House with paintings of sunflowers.
Throughout his first summer in the Yellow House, Vincent van Gogh keenly anticipated the arrival of Paul Gauguin, who, after many delays and excuses, arrived at Vincent van Gogh's door on October 23, 1888. Eager to work with his new companion, Vincent van Gogh escorted his guest to his favorite locations, but soon their conflicting attitudes toward art led to heated debates. While Vincent van Gogh believed that he needed to work fast, in the open air in front of his subject, Paul Gauguin advocated a slower approach.
In the aftermath of Vincent van Gogh's self-mutilation and Paul Gauguin's hasty departure from Arles, Vincent van Gogh became convinced that if he could return to his painting he could also regain his stability and his health. On January 4, 1889, Vincent van Gogh left the hospital and returned to the Yellow House, where he painted simple still lifes, self-portraits, and copies of his own sunflower bouquets. Through these familiar images, Vincent van Gogh reflected on his brief but life-changing encounter with Paul Gauguin.
As bedroom wall art, the piece pairs naturally with other post-impressionist wall art and with warm neutrals, timber, and soft natural light.
Materials matter for post-impressionist wall decor. That is why this piece is built on artist-grade canvas with lightfast oil colors, applied by hand rather than output from a printer, and sealed for long-term display.
Style it over a fireplace, behind a reading chair, or along a staircase. Wherever it goes, this post-impressionist oil painting wall decor adds the layered color that only a hand painted canvas provides.
