This fabric collection is a tribute to the vibrant life and breathtaking beauty of Arles, a place where Van Gogh found both inspiration and solace. Vincent Van Gogh's arrival in Arles marked a dramatic shift in his artistic expression. Leaving behind the somber tones of his earlier works, he embraced a palette dominated by radiant yellows, reflecting the region's abundant sunlight. In just over a year, he produced nearly 300 artworks, each a testament to his fascination with the light and color of Arles. Van Gogh's letters to his brother Theo are filled with his admiration for the "beautiful yellow" of the sun, and his frustration at not fully capturing its brilliance. The Arles Collection channels this passion, featuring a chrome yellow color palette enhanced by a spectrum of polychrome hues. These colors blend effortlessly with both contemporary and antique decor, providing versatility and timeless elegance.
