Vincent Van Gogh: First Steps, After Millet

“In fall and winter 1889–90, while a voluntary patient at the asylum in Saint-Rémy, Van Gogh painted twenty-one copies after Millet, an artist he greatly admired.

He let the black-and-white images—whether prints, reproductions, or, as here, a photograph that his brother,…

Vincent van Gogh: Self Portrait with Bandaged Ear (1889)

Why Is Paul Gauguin So Controversial?

“Was Van Gogh really painting a vase of sunflowers when his friend Gauguin produced this portrait of him? No, he can’t have been: it was December and far too late in the year for sunflowers. But it’s quite probable that Van Gogh painted a copy of one of his own sunflower pictures around this time….
