Letter from Vincent van Gogh to Theo van Gogh (13 October 1876) ... if Anna can go too, we might come together. And
now winter is slowly approaching again - try to be your old
self by that time. How welcome is that Christmastime in winter.
Oh! my boy, I look forward so much to the time when it will be
cold here and I shall...
Letter from Vincent van Gogh to His Parents (17-18 November 1876) ... Dear Father and Mother,
Thank God that Theo has almost recovered, and bravo that he
has already walked with Father in the snow to the Heike [a
hamlet near Etten]; how I wish I could have been together with

being ill.
As you can imagine,...
Letter from Vincent van Gogh to Theo van Gogh (13 October 1883) ... your nerves
do not play a dirty trick on you. You have gone through a
period of terrible mental strain: in fact, you are right in the
midst of it. You are not the man to break down - if such were
the case, there would be no danger. If you should have to go
through...
Letters from Andreis Bonger to his Parents (1886) ... now keeping their own cook in
optima forma. Theo is still looking frightfully ill; he
literally has no face left at all. That poor fellow has many
cares. Moreover, his brother is making life rather a burden to
him, and reproaches him with all kinds of things...
Letters from Theo van Gogh to his Family (1885 - 1887) ... into details it
is all other people's fault. No, the main reason was that I was
ill, especially mentally, and that I had a hard struggle with
myself.
Theo to Wil

A lot has changed since I last wrote you. We have made
peace,...
