Beddinghouse x Van Gogh Museum Self-Portrait Vincent Decorative Cushion - Blue

The Self-Portrait Vincent decorative cushion is based on the painting Self-Portrait. ‘They say – and I am very happy to believe it – that it is difficult to know oneself – but it is no less difficult to paint oneself’, Van Gogh once wrote to his brother Theo. In this self-portrait he depicted himself again as a respectable citizen with an elegant jacket and a felt hat. This small portrait is painted in pastel shades of grey-blue. An unusual colour scheme for Van Gogh, who even changed the colour of his eyes for this. In real life they were green, while in this painting they are grey-blue. Against all those shades of grey, the bright red beard stands out quite sharply. Beddinghouse wants to design beautiful collections that take people and the environment into account.

The Self-Portrait Vincent decorative cushion is made of a 100% cotton slub front and a 100% cotton back. The size is 30 x 50 cm. The cushion is not suitable for the washing machine or tumble dryer.
