Van Gogh's 'Parisian Novels' (November-December 1887) will be the leading lot in the Pritzker sale at Sotheby's, New York on 20 November, with an estimate of $40 million. The still life, depicting 22 books and three pink roses, has been consigned by the estate of Cindy Pritzker, who died in March at age 101.

How did the only painting sold by Van Gogh in his lifetime end up in Russia?

The article explores the history and conservation of Vincent van Gogh's "The Red Vineyard," the only painting he is certain to have sold during his lifetime. Sold for 400 francs at a Brussels exhibition in March 1890, the work now resides at the Pushkin State Museum of Fine Arts in Moscow. A recent conservation project used modern scientific techniques to uncover new details about the painting's creation, including Van Gogh's use of paint straight from the tube, compositional changes, and the fading of chrome yellow pigments. The article also recounts the painting's origin during Van Gogh's time in Arles with Paul Gauguin and its journey to Russia.

Works by Charley Toorop, one of the first female painters to admire Van Gogh, go on show in the Netherlands

An exhibition titled "Charley Toorop: Love for Van Gogh" opens at the Kröller-Müller Museum in the Netherlands (24 May-14 September), showcasing 60 works by Charley Toorop (1891-1955), one of the first female painters deeply influenced by Vincent van Gogh. The show, curated by Renske Tervaert, draws on the museum's extensive Toorop and Van Gogh collections, supplemented with loans, and highlights how Van Gogh's work shaped Toorop's art, particularly in the early 1920s. A key focus is her 1924 portraits of patients at the Willem Arntsz Medical Asylum for the Insane in Utrecht, where she painted three powerful works after a traumatic marriage to Henk Fernhout, who had been institutionalized there. The exhibition also explores personal connections: Van Gogh's brother Theo was treated and died at the same facility, and Toorop's still lifes echo Van Gogh's motifs, such as her use of knives alluding to domestic strife.

The National Gallery of Art’s Dear America Needs a Postscript

The National Gallery of Art in Washington, D.C. has opened "Dear America," an exhibition organized around the themes of "Land," "Community," and "Freedom" that attempts to survey the entire history of the United States through its collection. The show features works by artists including Mitch Epstein, Victoria Sambunaris, Sedrick E. Huckaby, and Nancy Andrews, with sections on the American landscape, industrialization, and diverse communities. However, the review notes that the exhibition feels overly literal, with American flags prominently featured and a sense of ticking off boxes rather than offering a challenging or intellectually rigorous presentation.
