    Vincent van Gogh, Auvers, 1890 Oil on jute, 36 x 36 in. (91.4 x 91.4 cm.) New York Private Collection Fig. 1 Vincent van Gogh, Auvers, 1890 Oil on jute, 36 x 36 in. (91.4 x 91.4 cm.) Signed on verso, ‘Vincent’ New York Private Collection Auvers,1890, Vincent van Gogh This is the discovery of a full-size van Gogh painting, one of only two in the past 100 years. The work depicts a view of a landscape at Auvers-sur-Oise, the town north of Paris where he spent the last two months of his life. The vista shows a railroad line crossing wheat fields. Auvers, 1890 (Figs. 1-13) is van Gogh’s largest and only square painting. This unique format was chosen to represent a panorama of the wheat fields of the region, of which parts are shown in many of his other paintings of the Auvers landscape. The present painting portrays the entire valley of the Oise as a mosaic of wheat fields, bisected by the right of way of a railway and a telegraph line. The center depicts a small railway station with station houses and a rail shunt, the line disappearing into the distant horizon. The painting is in its original, untouched ondition.c The support is coarse burlap on the original stretcher. The paint surface is a thick impasto that has an overall broad grid pattern of craquelure consistent with a painting of its age. The verso of the painting bears the artist’s signature, Vincent, in black pigment.

  • Vincent Van Gogh the Starry Night
    Richard Thomson Vincent van Gogh The Starry Night the museum of modern art, new york The Starry Night without doubt, vincent van gogh’s painting the starry night (fig. 1) is an iconic image of modern culture. One of the beacons of The Museum of Modern Art, every day it draws thousands of visitors who want to gaze at it, be instructed about it, or be photographed in front of it. The picture has a far-flung and flexible identity in our collective musée imaginaire, whether in material form decorating a tie or T-shirt, as a visual quotation in a book cover or caricature, or as a ubiquitously understood allusion to anguish in a sentimental popular song. Starry Night belongs in the front rank of the modern cultural vernacular. This is rather a surprising status to have been achieved by a painting that was executed with neither fanfare nor much explanation in Van Gogh’s own correspondence, that on reflection the artist found did not satisfy him, and that displeased his crucial supporter and primary critic, his brother Theo. Starry Night was painted in June 1889, at a period of great complexity in Vincent’s life. Living at the asylum of Saint-Rémy in the south of France, a Dutchman in Provence, he was cut off from his country, family, and fellow artists. His isolation was enhanced by his state of health, psychologically fragile and erratic. Yet for all these taxing disadvantages, Van Gogh was determined to fulfill himself as an artist, the road that he had taken in 1880.

  • Vincent Van Gogh, Who Grew up Walking the Dutch Countryside
    "Sorrowful yet always rejoicing," Vincent van Gogh, who grew up walking the Dutch countryside, traveled through life seeking the eternal "Light that rises in the darkness"- like these swans readying for flight south of Amsterdam. From the pain and beauty of his journey, he created masterworks of passion, including penetrating self-portraits, such as this one at age 34. Van Gogh likened painting to performing music. "Whether I really sang a lullaby in colors," he wrote, "I leave to the critics." National Geographic, October, 1997 By JOEL L. SWERDLOW, ASSISTANT EDITOR Photographs by LYNN JOHNSON THE LETTERS FROM VINCENT VAN GOGH to his brother Theo are yellowed. Some are torn at the corners or have holes from aging. Acid from ink eats through the cheap paper. I have come to this bombproof vault in the cellar of the Van Gogh Museum in Amsterdam to begin my search for Vincent. Who was this man who said he "sang a lullaby in colors:' and why does he have such a hold on us? His paintings sell for the most money; his exhibitions attract the highest number of visitors; reproductions of his work-on socks, sheets, party napkins, coffee cups-permeate homes and offices; the song "Vincent" has sold more than ten million copies since 1971; movies mythologize his life. No other artist, at any time in any culture, has been more popular. THE 650 LETTERS from Vincent to Theo fill three volumes. Their first surprise is immediate: I knew that Theo financed Vincent's painting and had assumed Theo was the big brother.

Mr. Kohn VAN GOGH BOOK READING GUIDE QUESTIONS Pages 39-61 Vincent the Dog 1883-85 I am getting to be like a dog, I feel that the future will probably make me more ugly and rough, and I foresee that “a certain poverty” will be my fate, but, I shall be a painter. --Letter to Theo, December 1883 Vincent came home ready to give his parents another chance to do the right thing. If only his father would apologize for throwing him out of the house, they could all settle down to the important business of Vincent’s becoming an artist. Mr. van Gogh didn’t see it that way. He and Vincent’s mother welcomed their thirty-year-old problem child, but they were ambivalent at the prospect of having him back in the nest. After a few days Vincent wrote humorously yet bitterly to Theo, comparing himself to a stray dog. 39 Dear brother, I feel what Father and Mother think of me instinctively(I do not say intelligently). They feel the same dread of taking me in the house as they would about taking in a big rough dog.

"Vincent van Gogh was from Brabant, and was a rebel and an innovator. Light inspired him and it was central to his work, just like it is at ASML," says Peter Wennink, President and CEO of ASML. “This collaboration gives us the opportunity to help connect and preserve the Van Gogh heritage in Amsterdam and Brabant and to share our knowledge with a wider audience. " ‘Vincentre’ Museum Nuenen Vincent van Gogh painted his first masterpiece in Nuenen in 1885: "The Potato Eaters". It was the result of an intensive search for perspective and light that characterizes his Brabant period. By linking Van Gogh’s life story to the innovative Brainport region, ASML and Van Gogh Brabant are able to further enhance the appeal of the region. This collaboration contributes to the realization of the planned extensions to the Vincentre Museum. In addition, ASML will initiate the realization of the ‘Vincent’s Lightlab’ within the expansion of Vincentre Museum.

  • Vincent Van Gogh
    Vincent Van Gogh (1853 – 1890) 19th century Netherlands and France Post-Impressionist Painter Vincent Van Gogh (Vin-CENT Van-GOKT??? [see page 2]) Post-Impressionist Painter Post-Impressionism Period/Style of Art B: 30 March 1853, Zundert, Netherlands D 29 July, 1890. Auvers-sur-Oise, France Van Gogh was the oldest surviving son born into a family of preacher and art dealers. When Vincent was young, he went to school, but, unhappy with the quality of education he received, his parents hired a governess for all six of their children. Scotswoman Anna Birnie was the daughter of an artist and was likely Van Gogh’s first formal art tutor. Some of our earliest sketches of Van Gogh’s come from this time. After school, Vincent wanted to be a preacher, like his father and grandfather. He studied for seminary with an uncle, Reverend Stricker, but failed the entrance exam. Later, he also proposed marriage to Uncle Stricker’s daughter…she refused (“No, nay, never!”) Next, as a missionary, Van Gogh was sent to a mining community, where he was appalled at the desperate condition these families lived in. He gave away most of the things he owned (including food and most of his clothes) to help them. His bosses said he was “over-zealous” for doing this, and ultimately fired him because he was not eloquent enough when he preached! Then, he tried being an art dealer under another uncle, Uncle Vincent (known as “Cent” in the family.) Vincent worked in Uncle Cent’s dealership for four years, until he seemed to lose interest, and left.

  • Hockney – Van Gogh the Joy of Nature
    Please get a head start! Prior to entry, read the exhibition texts and help us avoid congestion in the galleries. Hockney – Van Gogh The Joy of Nature The British painter David Hockney is one of the best- known artists in the world. Over the course of his 60-year career, he has created an impressive range of work, from his swimming-pool paintings in the 1960s to portraits and still lifes. This exhibition focuses on the landscapes that Hockney created in Yorkshire, in the north of England, between 2004 and 2013. They demonstrate Hockney’s constant exploration of different techniques—oil paintings, watercolors, charcoal and iPad drawings, sketchbooks, and films. For the first time in the United States, these works are on display together with a number of landscapes by Vincent van Gogh. Hockney has always been an admirer of Van Gogh’s work, and although separate in time and space, the two artists have much in common. Both show a deep connection with nature in their work. They view the landscape with fresh eyes and capture what they see through brilliant color. Their works express a desire to depict the natural world in all of its beauty and variety. David Hockney (born 1937) Born in the industrial town Bradford, West Yorkshire, in the north of England, in 1937, David Hockney came to public attention while still a student at the Royal College of Art, London, which he attended from 1959 to 1962. Drawn to the light of California, he settled in Los Angeles in 1964. In the late 1960s and 1970s, the artist moved back and forth between Los Angeles, London, and Paris.
