Bedroom In Arles, Vincent Van Gogh (1888)
Considered one of history’s most famous oil artworks, Bedroom in Arles was also one of Van Gogh’s most personal pieces since it was a painting of his own room. Like some of his other pieces, Van Gogh describes his painting process in a letter addressed to his brother, detailing how he chose unusual colors to express calm and comfort. He also explained that he painted this masterpiece during a turbulent period in his life, when an illness left him bedridden for days.

#7 It is the depiction of their wedding, wich happend to be in Brügge. A medieval onlooker would see a lot of information in the details:
- The dog stands for loyalty
- The glass windows and the peaches on the windowsill stand for wealth
- the weird wood shoes are called Trippe and saveguard its wearer before the feces on the streets.
- Its a marriage to the 'Left Hand' (her left in his right), means she is from lower social origin
- He raises his right hand for the marriage oath
- The weird Mirror is called 'Hexe' (witch) and if you look closely you will find two persons entring the room. One of them is the painter himself.
- The writing above says 'Jannis van Eyck fuit hic', means Jan van Eyck was here.
Conclusion: The Painting is merely a document of a marriage.
- The dog stands for loyalty
