Lamartine

Explore a master piece by Vincent van Gogh in 3D on your home screen!

This app provides you an interactive 3D live wallpaper based on the oil painting "The Yellow House" by the 19th-century Dutch Post-Impressionist painter Vincent van Gogh.

In May 1888, Van Gogh rented four rooms on the right-hand side of a house on Place Lamartine in Arles. Vincent had finally found a place at the Yellow House where he could not only paint but also have his friends come to stay. His plan was to turn the yellow corner-building into an artists’ house, where like-minded painters could live and work together.

I extracted all the objects in this painting, modified them to correct the perspective distortion and recreated the whole scene in 3D. Then I used libGDX to animate the 3D scene as a live wallpaper. Hope you like it!
