After Vincent Van Gogh's ear mutilation, he painted two notable works in the Arles hospital where he stayed. These paintings, influenced by his trauma, highlight his attempts to find beauty in art during a tumultuous time. Both paintings were acquired by Swiss collector Oskar Reinhart and have been restricted from loans until recently. Now, they are part of an exhibition at London's Courtauld Gallery, as Reinhart's museum is closed for renovations, marking a significant opportunity for art lovers to engage with Van Gogh's genius.
Van Gogh's two paintings of the Arles hospital, created after he mutilated his ear, provide insight into his mental state during this turbulent period.
The recent modification of Reinhart’s museum loan policy allows Van Gogh's paintings to be showcased at London's Courtauld Gallery, revealing historic art connections.
