Van Gogh exhibition in Mons 2015

The exhibition of Van Gogh will focus among other things as well on what 'Letters to his brother Leo' contains, namely drawings and sketches.
Given the linkage to the coal mine field which existed near Mons and where especially Van Gogh's father was active as priest, this special tribute to Van Gogh is certainly most appropriate for a Europe which has still to learn the law of proportionality. Van Gogh considers this to be the greatest of all arts.
