My mom had a print of that in her home for the past 30 years.

It's in both movies 'Zombieland: Double Tap' and 'Nobody'.

Van Gogh's painting of his bedroom.

The room has blue walls, dark wooden floor, and yellow wooden furniture. There is a bed, a table, and a couple of chairs. There are several paintings on the walls.

It is painted in van Gogh's recognisable style, with bold strokes of vibrant colours.
