Analysis: In this oil on canvas by Vincent Van Gogh he expresses his color scheme through the use of warm colors, his uses of the elements, line, form, colour,value, texture, and space helps identify the author's purpose. His use of line is repetitive in his painting, from the straight lines of the floor and pool table to the curved lines from the lights. The use of Principles to help create this artwork are used by pattern, contrast, emphasis, scale, harmony, rhythm, unity, and variety. Vincent Van Gogh uses rhythm by his direction of brush strokes, you can observe as every object is moving towards the back as if it is moving.
Theme: This work of art represents peace mainly due to it’s use of emptiness and relaxation. The work does not involve conflict such as war, fighting, arguing, and the use of its complementary colors avoid the fierceness and smoothens the painting.
