Vincent van Gogh - Self-portrait

Van Gogh maintained several close friendships with other artists, including fellow painter Paul Gauguin. Van Gogh, Gauguin and Emile Bernard wanted to establish a close-knit community of artists in the south of France. Here they would live and paint together! At the initiative of Van Gogh, the three artists exchanged self-portraits. So that's where this fat self-portrait with the gray felt hat came from.

Vincent van Gogh poster - The Starry Night

When Van Gogh painted his most famous painting, The Starry Night , he didn't even think this artwork was a success. Far from even. In fact, Van Gogh considered himself a failure and found many of his paintings unsuccessful; rumor has it that he sold only one painting in his lifetime. You can hardly imagine that now! Buy your own Starry Night and let your interior shine!

Vincent van Gogh - Sunflowers

In Arles (southern France) van Gogh made the painting: Sunflowers . In total he painted five large canvases of sunflowers in a vase, with three shades of yellow 'and nothing else'. In this way he showed that it was possible to create a performance with many variants of one color and still express different feelings and intentions.

Vincent van Gogh poster - Irises

For Van Gogh, the painting Irises was primarily a color study. He was looking for a strong color contrast. By placing the purple flowers against a yellow background, the decorative shapes came out extra bright. Originally the Irises were purple, but due to the fading of a red pigment, the flowers have now turned blue. Van Gogh painted the bouquet twice, below the second painting:

Vincent van Gogh - Irises II

The Irises II was painted shortly before Vincent van Gogh's first admission to the psychiatric facility. In his correspondence he called the work "the lightning rod for my illness". In terms of style, the painting has influences from Japanese printmaking, as can be seen in many of his works.

Vincent van Gogh poster - The Bedroom

In Arles, Van Gogh made a painting of his bedroom in the Yellow House. He had decorated the room himself with simple furniture and his own work on the wall. The bright colors were supposed to express 'absolute rest' or 'sleep'. The work now has bright contrasting colors. The colors in the painting have discolored over time, so the walls and doors were originally not blue, but purple.
