The Bedroom at Arles is Van Gogh’s third of five versions with this title. What a positive gift he had, making it possible to create a “distorted” vision so elegantly. This ability to make you feel like the furniture could actually look that way is magnificent. Just the very thought of Van Gogh sleeping, while the bed falls on top of him, always brought worry to my heart. It is wonderful to see him creating bold and bright paintings. No wonder Van Gogh considered Bedroom at Arles one of his personal favorites.
This painting does not give me a feeling of peacefulness on the contrary the room feels confined and collapsing in upon itself. A claustrophobics nightmare.
Aside from the sweet simplicity of the piece itself, the letter to Theo got my attention immediately. Compared to the competing and complex images that bombard me daily, I guess there is a sense of mental rest, just in time for a late lunch. I wouldn't have glanced at this and expected the commentary offered about it, but that's part of art's beauty. Speaking of, Courbet's piece (4:02) knocked my socks off. I loved the feel of it - very naturalistic, but not to the point of me being uncertain it's a painting. I'd love to see more by him.
I am speaking as a poet and musician, primarily: Please explain the term "modulation" as it applies to art and, specifically, to the table in van Gogh's painting. I've not heard that term used before in art, and I am confused by it. Google, unfortunately, isn't much help in this area, either. :)
I believe it is the way he was able to move the color from one tone to another, representing where the light was placed and bringing your eye back to a particular point of interest that he chose. He was able to give a "weight" or texture to the objects in his paintings. It is difficult for some to understand to grasp, I think, because it is so commonplace for us due to technology and our everyday living now. It was not for Van Gogh's time. Color modulation can be seen by some as almost childish or cartoonish, but to me it's like a basis for acrylic painting. We build upon layers of color with tones to achieve the look we want and draw the eye where we want it to go.
@@chriss6136 There You hit the nail on the head. This picture is not popular with "art lovers" because of its qualities, but because some millionaires decided to invest in it for tax purposes. This painting is no more than paper money for billionaires.

The walls still look violet when you compare to the doors tho :)
Eres mi eroe😊.
y now, for shure he was the best, so inprecive, with his work, wanderful.
Van Gogh literally couldn't paint if his life depended on it. In my eyes art is effort and skill, and I can see neither in this picture.
your eyes must not be worth much.
