It has been decided that the traveling exhibition “The Great Van Gogh Exhibition” (sponsored by Sankei Shimbun and others), which brings together masterpieces by the painter Vincent van Gogh (1853-90), will be held at the Ueno Royal Museum in Taito Ward, Tokyo. Masterpieces from the Kr\u00f6ller-Muller Museum in the Netherlands, which boasts one of the world’s leading collections of Van Gogh’s works, will be exhibited in two parts.<\/p>\n

This exhibition will travel in two parts, starting in Kobe and then Fukushima and Tokyo. It was planned as a project to mark the 30th anniversary of the Great Hanshin-Awaji Earthquake in Kobe and the 15th anniversary of the Great East Japan Earthquake in Fukushima.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

The highlight of the first period is “Caf\u00e9 Terrace at Night,” which will be shown in Japan for the first time in about 20 years. In addition, about 60 works by Van Gogh, including “Self-Portrait,” from his early Dutch period to his time in Arles, when he produced many masterpieces, will be on display, as well as masterpieces by contemporary Impressionist masters such as Claude Monet and Auguste Renoir from the museum’s collection.<\/p>\n

The highlight of the second phase, showcasing his career from his time in Arles to his later years, is The Drawbridge at Arles, known as a Dutch treasure, which will tour to Tokyo in 2027.<\/p>\n

“Caf\u00e9 terrace at night”<\/p>\n

This masterpiece depicts a cafe terrace in a square in the southern French city of Arles. The vivid contrast between the evening darkness and the cafe lights is stunning, with flat colors and dynamic brushstrokes.<\/p>\n

Along with “Caf\u00e9 Terrace at Night,” this is one of Vincent Van Gogh’s greatest masterpieces. It is considered a national treasure of the Netherlands and is rarely loaned outside the country, so this is the first time it has been shown in Japan in about 70 years. The impressive blue of the sky and water demonstrates Vincent Van Gogh’s skilled technique.<\/p>\n
