 elcome to The Vincent van Gogh Gallery.
For nearly 12 years now I've worked hard to ensure that this website
remains the most thorough and comprehensive Van Gogh resource on the
World Wide Web. To the right is a table detailing the contents of the
entire site. I'm proud to say that I have the privilege of displaying 100%
of Vincent van Gogh's works and letters--a complete, online catalogue
raisonné of Van Gogh's oeuvre. As you explore these pages, you'll see
the culmination of thousands of hours of work. But that's just the
beginning . . . .
On a regular basis I'll be adding more criticism and analysis, historical commentary as well as a vastly expanded web of cross-referential hyperlinks. This will allow the visitor an easy means of exploring the rich tapestry of Vincent van Gogh's life and art. The more work I put into The Vincent van Gogh Gallery, the more I realize that there is still so much left to do. In any event, I do sincerely hope that you enjoy your visit in a journey for insights and information about one of the most brilliant artists the world has ever known. |

head of his has been occupied with contemporary society's insoluble
problems for so long, and he is still battling on with his
good-heartedness and boundless energy. His efforts have not been in
vain, but he will probably not live to see them come to fruition, for
by the time people understand what he is saying in his paintings it
will be too late. He is one of the most advanced painters and it is
difficult to understand him, even for me who knows him so intimately.
His ideas cover so much ground, examining what is humane and how one
should look at the world, that one must first free oneself from
anything remotely linked to convention to understand what he was trying
to say, but I am sure he will be understood later on. It is just hard
to say when.
