Van Gogh Painting Recreated As Actual Bedroom to Rent on Airbnb

Van Gogh Painting Recreated As Actual Bedroom to Rent on Airbnb
Van Gogh's "Bedroom In Arles" painting has been rebuilt in detail for an Art Institute of Chicago exhibit–and rented for $10 a night.

That room is just as pretty as a picture – as a matter of fact, it's exactly as pretty as Vincent Van Gogh‘s famously breath-taking painting Bedroom In Arles.

Painstakingly recreated as an exhibit by artists at the Art Institute of Chicago, the painting has been brought to life as a room for rent at $10 a night on Airbnb.

The room's rental page description is narrated as if by the tortured artist himself, claiming: "I'm charging $10 for no other reason than that I need to buy paint."

With guests only allowed to stay for one night, the experience is being offered from February 14th to May 10th — and it looks like, as of this posting, all the days have been scooped up and booked by art lovers starving for a taste of Van gogh's genius.
