When one spoke to him, he always replied with an agreeable smile.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>When commenting on the portrait that Van Gogh did of her Adeline said,<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>\u201cI did not see a resemblance. Nevertheless, last year, someone who came to see me to talk about Van Gogh: the first time that they met me they recognized me from this portrait that Vincent had done and added: \u201cThis is not the youthful girl that you were that Vincent saw, but the woman that you would become.\u201d Neither of my parents really appreciated this painting, nor did anyone else that saw it then.
