Nature and the Artist
Nowhere did Vincent van Gogh find as much inspiration, peace and solace as in nature. Read the story and discover where and when he fell in love with nature.

In short
Blue Monday is known as the darkest and most depressing day of the year. Van Gogh experienced plenty of gloomy days himself. Let's find comfort in Vincent's own words:
Vincent van Gogh, Self-Portrait as a Painter, 1888
‘Success is sometimes the outcome of a whole string of failures.’
Vincent van Gogh, Wheatfield with Crows, 1890
‘It often seems to me that the night is much more alive and richly coloured than the day.’
Vincent van Gogh, Path in Montmartre, 1886
‘Do right and don’t look back, and things will turn out well.’
