Poor Van Gogh! Should have stuck around. The Japanese paid him the finest compliment ever — to imitate his art as he had imitated theirs! Wonderful to see this now. Totally new-to-me.
These are very beautiful. I like the one of the young girl and the woman where there are several paintings. Thanks for sharing history and works. Blessings to you. 🦋
At Sunnyside - Where Truth and Beauty Meet 
Very beautiful! I used to think that he was very much oriented towards Russian schools. But he studied in Paris, I see now.
