Hyundai IONIQ 6

You can see it clearly: this Hyundai IONIQ 6 is wrapped in Vincent van Gogh’s painting “Sunflowers. What makes this painting special? We better let the Van Gogh Museum explain that.

“The Sunflowers” are among Van Gogh’s most famous paintings. He made them in Arles, in southern France, in 1888 and 1889. In all, he painted five large canvases of sunflowers in a vase, with three shades of yellow “and nothing else. For Van Gogh, his paintings of sunflowers had special meaning. They expressed “gratitude,” he wrote. The first two he hung in the room of his friend Paul Gauguin, the painter who came to live with him for a while in the Yellow House. Gauguin was impressed by the sunflowers, which he said were ‘all Vincent,'” according to the Van Gogh Museum.













Collaboration

Hyundai is celebrating the arrival of the all-new IONIQ 6, but the brand also has a partnership with the Van Gogh Museum. This museum will be exactly 50 years old in 2023.
