15Mar09 Art in the Netherland

I went to Bloemen Market (Flower Market) , Van Gogh Museum and Rijks Museum!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Now Im really happy! I could see a lot of great works in museum.

At first, I went to (actually, just pass) Bloemen Market. I think the price is cheap, you can buy 50 turip just 10 euro!

Next I went to Van Gogh Museum.
I could see a lot of his works, Millet and Gauguin as well.

I think it is my best in Gogh's works.
"Pink peach tree in blossom (Japanese name : HANA SAKU MOMO NO KI)"
And Everybody know "Sunflower (Japanese name : HIMAWARI)"

And I heared that Gogh liked Japanese pictures, especially Hiroshige Utagawa. Hiroshiges pictures had a great influence on the impressionists at that time.

Finally, Gogh shot himself with a pistol in his life. I think probability is high that great artists committed suicide. coz they have too much imaginative,,,,and delicate,,,(its just my opinion)

I went to Rijks Museum after Gogh Museum. It was also nice museum.
I could see Johannes Vermeer's works, and I was lucky! coz one of Vermeer's works is coming to the museum from National Gallery of Art in Washington.

The picture is coming to the museum, now.
