Van Gogh Photo
Recently, a photo of Vincent van Gogh has been the topic of many discussions surrounding Van Gogh. The photo can be seen on VanGoghFoto.com where it states that it has been proven to be a photo of Vincent van Gogh from 1886. The photo is also in the book by Ken Wilkie The Van Gogh File, the Myth and The Man. While there are known images of Van Gogh’s family members, there are very few of Van Gogh himself especially as an adult. Since this is thought to be one of the few photos of Van Gogh, we would love to get your opinion about the photo and whether or not you think it resembles the likeness he captured in so many of his self portraits such as these. Comment and share your thoughts.
