The story
Van Gogh painted his own bedroom in the Yellow House three times, and he meant it as an image of rest — “looking at the picture ought to rest the brain,” he wrote to his brother. The room tilts, the floor rushes up, the walls lean in; the perspective is “wrong” on purpose, to make you feel enclosed and safe rather than to measure the space. Everything comes in pairs — two chairs, two pillows, pictures two by two — a quiet ache in a room built for one. The flat bright colour is borrowed from the Japanese prints he loved. Homeliness raised to the pitch of longing.
