More information：
How have the works of Vincent van Gogh (1853-1890) been passed down to the present day? This exhibition focuses on the family collection.
Theo, Van Gogh’s younger brother who supported his career and kept most of his works, passed away six months after his brother’s death, leaving Theo’s wife, Yeo, to manage the vast collection. Yeo dedicated her life to increasing her brother-in-law’s fame, lending his works to exhibitions, selling them, and organizing and publishing his vast collection of letters. In order to prevent the collection from being dispersed, her son, Vincent Willem, created the Vincent van Gogh Foundation and worked hard to establish a museum.
The Van Gogh Museum in Amsterdam houses approximately 200 oil paintings and 500 drawings by painter Vincent van Gogh, as well as letters, related works, and ukiyo-e prints. Most of these were permanently loaned by the Vincent van Gogh Foundation when the museum opened in 1973. This exhibition will mainly feature works from the Van Gogh Museum, and in addition to more than 30 of Van Gogh’s works, will also feature four of Van Gogh’s letters, which will be on display in Japan for the first time, showcasing the collection that has been protected and passed down by his family.
