Framing Van Gogh: why the artist did not want to surround his works with gold

London's National Gallery exhibition "Van Gogh: Poets & Lovers" displayed nearly all of its loaned paintings in ornate gilded frames, despite the artist's documented preference for simple, unadorned wooden frames. Van Gogh wrote to his sister Wil questioning the need for gilding, and Paul Gachet Jr., son of the doctor who cared for the artist, called gold frames around Van Gogh's works "an act of moral barbarism." A few exceptions stood out, including six paintings from the Kröller-Müller Museum in Otterlo, which were shown in replica frames based on early 20th-century designs by Jacob van den Bosch, and a Van Gogh from Tokyo's National Museum of Western Art that was reframed in a replica of a frame once owned by Dr. Paul Gachet.

Amy Sherald Withdrew 'American Sublime' Exhibition From Smithsonian National Portrait Gallery, Citing 'Culture of Censorship'

Amy Sherald has withdrawn her exhibition 'American Sublime' from the Smithsonian's National Portrait Gallery, citing a 'culture of censorship' after the museum raised concerns about including her painting 'Trans Forming Liberty' (2024), a portrait of a trans woman posed like the Statue of Liberty. The show, slated to open in September, would have been the first solo exhibition of a Black female artist at the museum since it opened in 1968. Sherald stated that institutional fear shaped by political hostility toward trans lives influenced the museum's request to remove the work, and she decided to cancel the show to preserve the integrity of her vision.

Van Gogh was not fantasising when he painted mountain landscapes with ‘The Two Holes’

Martin Bailey, a leading Van Gogh specialist, reveals that the distinctive rock formation known as Le Rocher des Deux Trous (The Rock of the Two Holes), which appears in two of Vincent van Gogh's paintings—The Olive Trees (June 1889) and Mountains at Saint-Rémy (July 1889)—is a real geological feature near the asylum in Saint-Rémy-de-Provence, not a figment of the artist's imagination. The two paintings, held by the Museum of Modern Art and the Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum in New York, were recently displayed together at London's National Gallery exhibition Van Gogh: Poets & Lovers (14 September 2024–19 January 2025), offering a rare chance to compare them. Bailey traces the history of the formation, noting that an anonymous 17th-century artist also depicted it, and describes a walking route from the former asylum to the site.
