The Bedroom (1889) by Vincent Van Gogh

The Bedroom — Vincent van Gogh (1889)

A quiet room that hums with colour. This fine-art reproduction—after van Gogh’s 1889 version of his Arles bedroom—turns simple furniture into pure feeling: blue walls, a lemon-yellow bed, red coverlet, green shutters, and pictures that tilt like thoughts. The skewed perspective is deliberate—an invitation to rest the eye and the mind.

Why it captivates

• Everyday made iconic — a humble interior distilled into colour and contour.

• Colour harmony — complementary blues, yellows, and reds that feel both calm and alive.

• Expressive space — intentional distortions that read like memory, not measurement.

• Design-forward — flat colour planes and bold outlines suit contemporary interiors.

• Conversation starter — instantly recognisable yet intimate at close view.

What you’ll see

A sunlit bedroom with a yellow bed at left, two chairs, a wooden table with jug and basin, green shutters, and pictures hung slightly askew. The floor tilts; the walls breathe; outlines are strong. Van Gogh’s brushwork makes stillness feel spacious.

A richer historical frame

First conceived in October 1888 in Arles, The Bedroom explored how colour alone could suggest rest. Van Gogh later painted additional versions—this 1889 canvas refines the idea: simplified forms, flat colour fields, and intimate scale. It’s a portrait of a place made to soothe.
