The museum went through Van Gogh's entire artistic process. It described his training, what he struggled with, which canvases he used, who inspired him and who he inspired, and how his own style developed. It was so incredible. Here are just a few highlights of things we loved and why.
We got to touch a reproduction of part of a painting to actually feel how thick the paint is and what the brushstrokes are really like. It is good that this was here. It really was so tempting to reach out and touch his paintings.
Look at the dancing cloud in the top left corner. There is so much life and movement that breaths through his later paintings.
We loved the how we could feel the wind blowing in this picture. Everything felt like it was moving.
