Paris 2012/2013 - Day Four Van Gogh

Having just been in Amsterdam - I wasn't too keen on seeing more works by Van Gogh in Paris. This show hosted by the Pinacotheque du Paris was worth every minute of my time. It is titled Van Gogh - Dreaming of Japan and offers a rare look into Japan's Hiroshige influence on Van Gogh's work. The side-by-side comparisons are educational and entertaining.











The two other exhibits in the Pinacotheque de Paris - a collection of private works by the masters (a varied show of some really good artworks that you haven't seen before) and a show of photos from Japan's chaos after the storms (tsunami) in March 2011.


Location:Paris, France
