Wheatfield Under Thunderclouds is an 1890 oil painting by Vincent van Gogh. The painting measures 50.4 cm × 101.3 cm (19.8 in × 39.9 in). It depicts a relatively flat and featureless landscape with fields of green wheat, under a foreboding dark blue sky with a few heavy white clouds. The horizon divides the work almost into two, with shades of green and yellow below and shades of blue and white above.
And also:
Minor planet 4457 Van Gogh is named in his honour. :)

I so want to experience this myself, I’ve never actually been anywhere that flat
This is not flat, but rather hilly, though.
During my first visit to the Wadden Sea, an actual +/-1m flat area (apart from the dyke), it felt like the Matrix was broken. Unreal…
I drove across the US state of Kansas once. That place is very flat, and just one farm town after another after another. It is odd, for real.
