Bedding House is proud to be the official partner of the Van Gogh Museum Amsterdam. The unique collaboration between the Van Gogh Museum and Bedding House results in a very special bed textile collection. Each design is inspired by one of Vincent van Gogh's paintings. This season, the inspiration for the products comes from when Vincent was inspired by Oriental art. Japanese printmaking was one of Vincent's biggest sources of inspiration. The design is based on the painting "Flowering plum orchard". Vincent had many Japanese prints in his collection, speaking of "hundreds" in his letters. He practised the use of colour and style of Japanese artists by making paintings after these prints. Vincent chose Utagawa Hiroshige's "The Plum Tree Tea House in Kameido" for his first copy. He literally copied the composition, but he applied the colours much more strongly. He swapped the black and grey of the tree trunk for shades of red and blue. He additionally added two orange decorative borders with Japanese characters for an exotic effect. In this design, the blossom branches from the painting are beautifully highlighted and made into an all-over pattern. The background is dark red and subtly shows Vincent's firm brushstrokes. The quilt cover has a uni-dyed red reverse. The quilt cover has a palette of taupe, red, white, black, brown, and natural colour tones.
