Van Gogh's Sunflowers is one of his most famous works worldwide. It is a rich symphony of different shades of yellow, brown, orange, green, and blue. This series of decorative still lives of sunflowers was Van Gogh's way of impressing his friend Paul Gauguin. These still lives would adorn the walls of Gauguin's bedroom.
Van Gogh started the series with great enthusiasm. He had to paint quickly because the flowers in a vase quickly wilted: ''I'm painting with the enthusiasm of a Marseille man eating bouillabaisse [Provencal fish soup], which would not surprise you if you knew I was painting large sunflowers''. Gauguin did indeed consider the paintings to be very successful, naming the sunflower as a Van Gogh trademark. In 1889, Van Gogh revisited the motif on the canvas that now hangs in the Van Gogh Museum. This duvet cover features the well-known work by Van Gogh, with strikingly lifelike sun flowers and clearly visible brush strokes. The sketched flowers add a certain depth and an artistic touch to your bedroom.
The quilt cover is made of 100% cotton sateen. The cover has a chic sheen and the sateen weave makes it feel very smooth. More threads are used for a sateen weave and the material is woven much tighter. Cotton sateen is made of 100% high quality breathable cotton and is moisture-absorbent.
