Content
The Décoration for the Yellow House was the main project Vincent van Gogh focused in Arles, from August 1888 till his breakdown the day before Christmas. This Décoration had no pre-defined form or size, the central idea of the Décoration grew step by step, with the progress of his work. Starting with the Sunflowers, portraits were included in the next step. Finally, mid-September 1888, the idea got shape: From this time he concentrated on size 30 canvases (Toiles de 30), which were all meant to form part of this Décoration.
Even later, in Saint-Rémy as well as in Auvers, size 30 canvases form the body of Van Gogh's work, and even more: he continued conceiving series and groups of work based on this size . See The Wheat Field, the Copies after Millet, and others and the Display at Les XX 1890, all from Saint-Rèmy, and the Auvers size 30 canvases.
