Description

Just like Van Gogh who made these paintings to decorate his home in anticipation of a visit from his friend and artist Paul Gauguin, you can cross-stitch this masterpiece to hang in your home or turn it into a cushion. By reworking Van Gough’s famous brushstrokes with thread, you’ll see this iconic work of art in a new light. The five versions of the sunflower paintings are among his most famous and beloved works.

Dutch post-impressionist painter Van Gogh has become one of the most famous and influential figures in the history of Western art. His landscapes, still lifes, portraits and self-portraits are characterized by vivid colors and a dramatic, impulsive and expressive brushwork.

The National Gallery in London is home to one of the world’s greatest collections of paintings. Its collection numbers 2,300 works, including many famous paintings such as van Eyck’s Arnolfini Portrait, Velázquez’s Venus at Rokeby, Turner’s Temeraire’s Battle and Van Gogh’s Sunflowers. All the great traditions of Western European painting are represented, from the artists of late medieval and Renaissance Italy to the French Impressionists.
