The Drinkers

Vincent van Gogh, 1890

While in the Asylum of Saint-Paul van Gogh focused on interpretations of other artists works that he admired. The Drinkers was a copy of a wood engraving - Physiologie du Buveur: Les quatre âges (The Four Ages of Drinkers, 1862) by Honoré Daumier

Back when the spouse and I approached retirement, he made an advent calendar: only x more Mondays going to work! and we opened one window each Monday. Today, we went to the Boston Museum of Fine Arts to see the Van Gogh show - and got to see that painting for real! It made me so happy.

Anyone else struggle to declare an artwork finished?

This little postcard sized Van Gogh painting has been nearly done for ages.

Tonight, I compared it to the original and decided it's time - finished!

Ich bin jetzt schon aufgeregt. Nur noch ein paar Wochen warten und dann fahren wir wieder nach Frankreich, diesmal in die Gegend von Montpellier.

Normalerweise ist die Vorfreude nicht so früh am Start und schon gar nicht, wenn es nach Frankreich geht. Vielleicht bin ich einfach nur reif für einen Tapetenwechsel?
