Amsterdam: Van Gogh Museum Entry Ticket and Guided Tour – Amsterdam, Netherlands

EXPERIENCE:

Vincent’s art is beloved and known all over the world. But do you also know his story?

This small group tour (max 6) to the Van Gogh Museum is crafted and given by Dutch art historians (Fleur, Chiel, Florentine, Valéry & Fannie). In this tour we will dive deep into the life, art and inspiration of Vincent. You will learn why and how Van Gogh started taking up the brush at 27. Discover the importance of his beloved brother Theo in his life, and gain understanding about his relationships and his family. Van Gogh was tormented by his mental difficulties, learn how this shows, next to his genius and his temper, in his masterpieces such as ‘The Potato Eaters’, ‘The Sun Flowers’, ‘The Yellow House’ and ‘The Almond Blossom’. You will get a better understanding about the different artistic periods, for example his ‘dark period’ in Brabant, his experimental period in Paris, and his turbulent time with Gauguin in the yellow house in Arles. Vincent takes his own life at 37, his art dealer brother Theo dies a few months later. So who is the person who makes Vincent famous? Behind every success story of a man stands a great woman…

This tour is not only a tribute; a tour about Vincent is a tour about love, dedication, courage and brotherhood visible in every brushstroke.

*The Van Gogh museum houses the world’s largest collection of Van Gogh paintings. The extensive collection boasts more than 200 paintings and 500 drawings by the artist.
