VAN GOGH’S VAN GOGHS is an illuminating survey of the life and work of one of the world’s most renowned artists. It vividly documents the blockbuster exhibition of 70 paintings that were loaned to the National Gallery of Art in Washington, D.C. from Amsterdam’s Van Gogh Museum.  Viewers are guided through the three stages of van Gogh’s artistic development; the early work in the Netherlands, his reactions to French Impressionism and his most creative years in the south of France.
