Theo van Gogh to Vincent van Gogh : 5 June 1890 » Home < Previous Next > Letter from Theo van Gogh to Vincent van Gogh Auvers-sur-Oise, 5 June 1890 Relevant paintings: "Cypresses with Two Female Figures," Vincent van Gogh [Enlarge] Letter T36 Paris, 5 June 1890 My dear Vincent, I cannot tell you how happy we are because you could write us that you continue in good health, and that your stay at Auvers has had rather a good influence on your condition. Dr. Gachet came to see me yesterday, but unfortunately there were customers, which prevented me from talking with him very much, but at any rate he told me that he thought you entirely recovered, and that he did not see any reason for a return of your malady. He invited us to visit him next Sunday, when you will also be there. We should be damned glad to do it, but it is not possible all the same for Jo to make a definite promise. On Whitsunday we went to St. Cloud, where we had that terrible cloudburst, which must have reached your part of the country too. Without actually catching cold the little one has been quite upset ever since, probably by the crowd we had to ... http://www.webexhibits.org/vangogh/letter/21/T36.htm · 14.3k |

Here in Paris the best milk you can buy is downright poison. We are now giving him ass's milk, and this is doing him good, but you never heard anything so grievously distressing as this almost continuous plaintive crying all through many days and many nights, when you don't know what to do, and all you do seems to aggravate his sufferings. It's not that the milk isn't fresh, but what is wrong is the fodder and the treatment of the cows. It's abominable. You can well imagine how happy we are that it is going better. Jo was admirable, which you can imagine too. A true mother, but for all that she wore herself out a good deal too much; may ... http://www.webexhibits.org/vangogh/letter/21/T39.htm · 18.5k |
Theo van Gogh to Vincent van Gogh : 2 June 1890 » Home < Previous Next > Letter from Theo van Gogh to Vincent van Gogh Auvers-sur-Oise, 2 June 1890 Letter T35 Paris, 2 June 1890 My dear Vincent, I was kept very busy last week by that Raffaelli exhibition; we stayed open as late as ten o'clock at night. If it hadn't been for that I should have answered your last letter sooner. I hope you will like the country, and that the boardinghouse is a good one. 1 At Mother Siron's at Barbizon one paid 5 francs, and 4.50 francs if one stayed for any length of time, and it was excellent. When I was at Auvers I dined with my friend Martin at an inn in the low-lying plain. I think there was first the Oise, and then fields and the highroad, and at the side of this road there was the inn. One dined there very well at the time, and it was not expensive. At some time or other I shall have to go there, and I shall be pleased to lend a willing ear to your proposal to come with Jo and the little one, for I am feeling rather exhausted, and the country will do me good. But we shall also have to go see Mother and Jo's parents. If I could get a ... http://www.webexhibits.org/vangogh/letter/21/T35.htm · 13.5k |

In the first place I went to the Salon with De Bock yesterday; he came to lunch with us, and then we looked at your pictures. He likes them very much, and he gives me the impression of understanding them. As you told me that you would be glad to exchange a picture with him, when I saw that he preferred the canvas you did after reading the book by Rod, I told him he could take that one in exchange for a picture of his. He seemed to be enraptured, and put everything he had at your disposal. I went with him to see what he had at home, and among his pictures there was a size 20 canvas or thereabouts made at Frameries in the Borinage, representing the Crachet and Pecry Works, which you may remember; the whole factory looms in a ... http://www.webexhibits.org/vangogh/letter/21/T38.htm · 15.4k |

This morning your letter arrived, for which I thank you, and for the 50-fr. note it contained. Yes, I think that for many reasons it would be good if we could all be together again for a week of your holidays, if longer is impossible. I often think of you, Jo, and the little one, and I notice that the children here in the healthy open air look well. And yet even here it is difficult enough to bring them up, ... http://www.webexhibits.org/vangogh/letter/21/638.htm · 22.3k |

I have been waiting for the package of paints and canvas from Tasset - which has just arrived and for which also I thank you very much - before answering your questions as to the difference between Tanguy's and Tasset's colours. Well, it all comes to the same thing, among Tasset's tubes there are now and then some, especially those containing white, which are badly filled. But when Tanguy in his turn fills them badly too - certainly without doing it on purpose - e. g. the tubes of cobalt, I am holding one just now - so, considering that the facts of the case are the same on both sides, I do not see why ... http://www.webexhibits.org/vangogh/letter/21/642.htm · 18.5k |
Theo van Gogh to Vincent van Gogh : 3 July 1890 » Home < Previous Next > Letter from Theo van Gogh to Vincent van Gogh Auvers-sur-Oise, 3 July 1890 Letter T40 Paris, 3 July 1890 My dear Vincent, Many thanks for your letter. Happily, mine contains good news of the little one. After some days of suffering he is beginning to be merry again and not to cry so much. This is due to the good ass's milk we are giving him now. The animals come to the door, and in the morning he gets warm milk, always from the same animal. After that there remains enough for two portions which he gets alternately with his mother's milk, which is now coming in abundance. At the moment he is looking very well. It is necessary for him to take ass's milk for at least 15 days, so we shall not be able to go visit Pissarro on July 14. Therefore I have reserved this day to go see Claude Monet with Valadon, who will be sure to annoy me that day, but I am glad to be going to see the new works by Monet. There is no reason for you to put off your visit - not that we didn't appreciate your willingness to come share our troubles; on the contrary; many thanks ... http://www.webexhibits.org/vangogh/letter/21/T40.htm · 13.7k |

Today Tasset is going to send you the paints you ordered. The other day Tangui told me that Tasset's tubes were much shorter and therefore contained less paint than his. If this should be the case, please tell me, for then I could make use of it to get a reduction in price. It will be much easier for you when your furniture has arrived, for then you might be able to get a comrade to stay with you too. There is a Dutchman who is going to call on you; he was recommended by De Bock 1, who had advised him to go to Fontainebleau, but he doesn't like it. I don't know if he has any talent; he had nothing to show me. Lauzet came yesterday morning to see your pictures; he is very busy with his ... http://www.webexhibits.org/vangogh/letter/21/T37.htm · 13.7k |
