Bedding House Van Gogh Wheatfield Yellow Filled Square Cushion

The Wheatfield decorative cushion is based on the painting Wheatfield with a reaper. Van Gogh painted this walled field from his hospital room. For the first few months that he was there, he was not allowed to leave the grounds. The reaper labours in the heat of the sun. The wheat, painted with thick blobs of yellow, undulates around him. For Van Gogh, wheat was a symbol of the eternal cycle of nature and the transience of life. He saw the reaper as 'the image of death... in this sense that humanity would be the wheat being reaped.' He added, however, that this death was 'almost smiling'. It is all yellow, apart from a row of purple hills a pale, light yellow. 'I myself find that funny, that I saw it like that through the iron bars of a cell.' Beddinghouse is committed to designing beautiful collections with respect for people and the planet.
