"The Yellow House looks excellent in my house. Very happy with Van Gogh Studio guiding me through the process. I am very glad I can look at my favorite painting everyday! - Simon"
The Yellow House replica in oil on canvas
Van Gogh Studio is located in Amsterdam, near the Van Gogh museum where we can study the original works. Our paintings are all painted in oil on canvas by mainly Dutch artists who have studied Van Gogh's technique, including brushstrokes, color mixing, atmosphere and the rhythm of painting.
Van Gogh’s Home
The yellow house at the front of the painting is the house where Van Gogh lived in
Arles, in the south of France. He rented two rooms on the ground floor, an atelier and kitchen, and two
bedrooms on the first floor.
The second bedroom was used for a stretch of time by his friend and artist
Paul Gauguin whom Van Gogh invited to stay. They lived together and shared their working habits with each other, regularly going out together to paint
landscapes, or staying home to concentrate on
still lifes.
Conflicting personalities Van Gogh and Gauguin
The relationship though eventually breaking down partly due to living in close quarters and spending large amounts of time together, and partly because of conflicting personalities and Van Gogh’s own sensitivities.
The Yellow House No Longer
The house that this painting depicts and where Van Gogh lived and created many masterpieces such as
Sunflowers,
Bedrooms in Arles,
The Night Café,
Café Terrace At Night, and many more - not to mention Gauguin’s own creations while living there - has, since the 1940s, been demolished after being severely damaged by bombing raids in World War II.
The land was eventually cleared though nothing was rebuilt in its place. Now there is only a plaque standing there commemorating the land and how historically significant it was in the development of one of the 19th century Masters.
