This and much more you’ll discover on your private tour through the entire museum.
Van Gogh Museum Private Tour Description:
Van Gogh is the quintessential misunderstood genius. He was considered a madman and a failure while he was alive, but attained widespread artistic and commercial success in the decades following his death. You’ll be using both your ears listening to the engaging stories about his life and artwork from your very own private guide.
More than just a tour of his masterpieces, in this tour you will learn more about Van Gogh as a person. How did he start his painting career? And how was his relationship with his family? Your guide takes you through the museum to provide the stories behind the paintings that go much deeper than the descriptions on the wall.
Find out what inspired Vincent’s artwork, from his famous Sunflowers, self-portraits, and Blossom Trees. You follow Vincent’s story from his humble upbringing, his decision to take up the brush, his unrecognized genius, to eventually his most productive times and his tragic death.
