Vincent Van Gough's famous painting "The Bedroom," a small room with walls painted in blue and scuffed green paint on the flooboards. A single bed is up against the right wall, where a couple of Van Gough's paintings hang. Behind the headboard hangs another of his paintings and some hooks where his clothes and hat hang. Next to the bed is an empty chair, a small table with a washing basin and jug, a carafe, a glass, and a plate with a piece of bread. Behind the table is a French window, slightly open, and a small mirror hanging on the wall.

“I swear to the Lord
I still can’t see
Why Democracy means
Everybody but me.”
— Langston Hughes, 1943
