Van Gogh


A new Van Gogh! Get your Van Gogh oil painting and get rich quick, it is only estimated at $14,000 to $16,000  and comes with a certificate!
Normally, I would be wary of such an unknown Van Gogh, but if the Musée d'Orsay has given it a certificate, then it can't be wrong surely?
It is comparable to the above known Van Gogh painting, painted in Arles in 1889. Who would have guessed that he made nearly the same painting already in 1881, when he lived in Belgium and the Netherlands. This painting basically changes the whole of art history, showing that Van Gogh painted these landscapes not from real life but from his own imagination, and that he wasn't simply years ahead of other painters, but even years ahead of himself!
