Note: Yellow symbolizes the passion and hope of life, while blue conveys purity and tenacity. This subjective choice of color is not a realistic replication of nature, but rather a direct externalization of Van Gogh's inner emotions. This simple composition not only enhances the expressiveness of the theme but also implies Van Gogh's pursuit of "pure artistic form". Van Gogh had an extreme love for natural life. Even when he was trapped in a spiritual predicament, he still sought the power of life through floral themes. The iris in the picture (symbolizing "hope and freedom") represents his persistent pursuit of beautiful things and also his spiritual transcendence of the harsh reality.
