"In arranging my new apartment I see your paintings again with so much pleasure.... There's such a note of truth, of real countryside in each one."
Letter to van Gogh from his brother Theo, Paris, March 16, 1889
"I've looked most attentively at your works since we parted; first at your brother's and then at the Independents exhibition. I offer you my sincere compliments, and for many artists you are the most remarkable in the exhibition. With things from nature you are the only one there who thinks."
Letter to van Gogh from artist Paul Gauguin, Paris, March 20, 1890
Join the conversation. Share your thoughts about Van Gogh Up Close.I felt like i can jump into the paintings to jump, and play around. I learned so much by watching and listening to all the stories of the paintings. Such vivd brushstrokes and colors. He used almost every color I know of!!~Sydney Freihofer
