| Wheatfield with Crows. 1890. |
Is there a subliminal image in
Van Goghs famous
Wheatfield with Crows? Lots of people believe they can see more than what is plain. What I see in this painting, as illustrated below, is Vincent's head lying on a pillow and a woman lying on top of him, using her arm as her own pillow. Vincent's head is on the right side of the painting, and the woman's on the left. Both Vincent and the woman appear to be happy and relaxed.
This 'hidden' image appears to me much more strongly than the literal interpretation of this work. Take a look:

| The outlines. Does that big cloud in the middle represent bandaging around his ear? |
