Day 12: Amsterdam and Van Gogh

https://www.brigantesenglishwalks.com/l0iobgovo The light in Amsterdam is a painterly light, indeed.

We were racing the clock as we walked by Centraal Station, on our way to our timed admission tickets at the Van Gogh Museum.

There is an extensive display of his self-portraits — so many self-portraits because Van Gogh would not have had the money to pay a model, thus he painted himself. For free.

In the center is a tunnel with the entrances at ground level and the Gallery of Honour on the first floor.
