About the Artwork

Two Workers Resting Beside a Golden Haystack

This Van Gogh The Siesta after Millet canvas print sets two resting figures within a sunlit harvest scene. Their blue clothing stands out against the golden ground, while the tall haystack creates sheltering shade beside the open field.

Artwork and design

The horizontal figures repeat the low lines of the ground and distant field. Curved shapes in the haystack contrast with the broad blue sky. Small objects near the workers add close details without breaking the calm arrangement of blue and gold.

About this design

Also known as La Méridienne, the painting was made during Van Gogh’s Saint-Rémy period in 1889–1890. He adapted a composition by Jean-François Millet, giving the resting workers a personal color scheme built around blue-violet and yellow-orange.

Rooms and interiors

Choose this peaceful harvest framed print for a living room, study or bedroom with warm neutral walls. Blue textiles connect with the figures and sky. A stretched canvas gives the reclining forms and broad golden field an uninterrupted presentation.
