On the Road with Vincent

May 23rd, 2008

Langlois Bridge at Arles with Road Alongside the Canal, The - Vincent van GoghI recently came across Vincent has Arrived, a website with a series of posts from the art blog Dali House. While Dali House, named for Salvador Dali, and has a wealth of information surrounding the artist, it is also a great reference for information on lots of other artists including Vincent van Gogh. It was in a post on Dali House where I first read about the website Vincent has Arrived which chronicles the places Van Gogh lived and the things he did in during the last 30 months of his life. It is fascinating to see the satellite images of Arles and Auvers-sur-Oise on this site which highlight some of the places Van Gogh lived and frequented that are still around today. It is interesting to see what has changed in 120 years and even more interesting to see what has not. If you would like more information about some of these places that you can still visit today, the Van Gogh Gallery’s In His Steps section has contact information for many of these famous spots.
