The exhibition “Van Gogh and Britain” presents the largest collection of Van Gogh’s paintings in the UK for nearly a decade.
This event brings together 45 works by Vincent van Gogh to show how he was inspired by Britain and how he inspired British artists.
Van Gogh lived in England as a young man for several years, wandering around the streets alone and falling in love with British culture. He loved Charles Dickens’ work, and he was inspired by the art he saw, including paintings by Constable and Millais which are also featured in this exhibition.
Some of Van Gogh’s most famous works have been brought together from around the world – including ‘Shoe’s, ‘Starry Night on the Rhône’, ’L’Arlésienne’, and two works he made while a patient at the Saint-Paul Asylum. There will also be the very rarely lent Sunflowers, from London’s National Gallery.
The exhibition also looks at the British artists who were inspired by the painter, including Francis Bacon, David Bomberg, and the young Camden Town painters, to show how his vision brought British artists towards modern art.
