  • Newly uncovered colors of two van Gogh paintings show how the artist’s darkening life cast a shadow over his work and change the way art experts see the late period of his life. Both paintings portray Vincent van Gogh’s bedroom in Arles, southern France, in the late 1880s, and are part of a new exhibition opening in Chicago. On Sunday conservators revealed the original colors, at the American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS), thanks to technology called X-ray fluorescence spectrometry.

    This is amazing! "He described it in a letter to his brother Theo: "I have painted the walls pale violet. The ground with checked material. The wooden bed and the chairs, yellow like fresh butter; the sheet and the pillows, lemon light green. The bedspread, scarlet coloured. The window, green. The washbasin, orangey; the tank, blue. The doors, lilac. And, that is all." "Casadio said Van Gogh had a room ready for Gauguin and he had worked for weeks to decorate the walls with art. "In the myriad letters he wrote to his brother Theo and friends, he said the color has to do the job here," she said. "When he was finished he slept for two days." And now there is an Air BnB where you can stay in his room! ( I'll post about it!) I'm in, he's a favorite of mine! Great post, thanks!
