Theo van Gogh to Vincent van Gogh : 15 June 1890 » Home < Previous Next > Letter from Theo van Gogh to Vincent van Gogh Auvers-sur-Oise, 15 June 1890 Relevant paintings: "L'Arlesienne: Madame Ginoux with Gloves and Umbrella," Vincent van Gogh [Enlarge] Letter T 37 Paris, 15 June 1890 My dear Vincent, I am very pleased to see that the news about yourself goes on being good, and that the courage to do your work is far from leaving you. 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 |

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 |

The exchange you have made with Bock is very good, and I am very curious to see what he is doing now. I hope that Jo is better, as you say that she has been indisposed. ... http://www.webexhibits.org/vangogh/letter/21/644.htm · 18.5k |

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 |

My dear Theo, You should send the enclosed order for paints at the beginning of the month, anyway at the most convenient time, there is no hurry, a few days sooner or later don't matter. Yesterday and the day before I painted Mlle. Gachet's portrait, which I hope you will see soon; the dress is pink, the wall in the background green with orange spots, the carpet red with green spots, the piano dark violet; it is 1 metre high by 50 cm wide. It is a figure that I painted with pleasure - but it is difficult. He has promised to make her pose for me another time at the small organ. I will do one for you - I have noticed that this canvas goes very well with another horizontal one of wheat, as one canvas is vertical and in pink tones, ... http://www.webexhibits.org/vangogh/letter/21/645.htm · 15.0k |

Last Sunday I had a visit from Theo and his family; I find it very pleasant to be less far away from them. These days I am working a good deal and quickly ; by doing this I seek to find an expression for the desperately swift passage of things in modern life. Yesterday in the rain I painted a large landscape, showing fields as far as one can see, looked at from a height, different kinds of green growth, a potato field of a somber green, between the regular beds the rich violet earth, on one side a field of peas in white bloom, then a field of clover with ... http://www.webexhibits.org/vangogh/letter/21/W23.htm · 16.0k |
Vincent van Gogh to Mr. and Mrs. Ginoux : c. 12 June 1890 » Home < Previous Next > Letter from Vincent van Gogh to Mr. and Mrs. Ginoux Auvers-sur-Oise, c. 12 June 1890 My dear friends Ginoux, I will reply to Mrs. Ginoux's letter without delay, to tell you that I am happy to have heard from you; I am very sorry to hear that Mr. Ginoux was injured and suffered much pain. I urgently request you to let somebody else pack my things, so that he need not wear himself out with it; I shall be pleased to pay you back all the expenses that you may incur, but I insist upon his not exerting himself too much lest the wound burst open again. In this way, however, I count on your sending the things off on Saturday, for I am anxiously awaiting them. Yes, I too was very sorry that I could not return to Arles to say goodbye to you all, for you know well that I had become attached to the people and things of your town with a sincere friendship. But lately I had contracted the other patients' disease to such an extent that I could not be cured of mine. The other patients' society had a bad influence on me, and in the end I was absolutely unable to ... http://www.webexhibits.org/vangogh/letter/21/640a.htm · 13.9k |

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 |

I stayed in Paris only three days, and the noise, etc., of Paris had such a bad effect on me that I thought it wise for my head's sake to fly to the country; but for that, I should soon have dropped in on you. And it gives me enormous pleasure when you say the Arlésienne's portrait, which was based strictly on your drawing, is to your liking. I tried to be religiously faithful to your drawing, while nevertheless taking ... http://www.webexhibits.org/vangogh/letter/21/643.htm · 18.2k |
