Thatched Cottages and Houses

Post-Impressionism

The story

Van Gogh painted about 15 thatched cottages in and around Auvers sur Oise.

Same small town. Same roofs. Same (last) summer. Today if you wanted to see them all you would need to go to Boston, Toledo, Saint Louis, Cincinnati, Washington, Paris, Amsterdam, London, Cardiff, Saint Petersburg, Basel, Zürich, Helsinki, Vienna, Madrid. 15 cities. 9 countries. For one town and one summer. The cottages are still there. But the paintings left a long time ago.
