I saw a new dimension of Van Gogh and his genius when the author tells the story of him purchasing a mirror so that he could use himself as a model; he did this to save money; he had little of it.  I was, also, impressed with information about the Van Gogh Museum Amsterdam, and the comments about impressionists: "impressionist mixed colors on the canvas".  I had not realized that Van Gogh experimented with a Japanese style.  I realized that Van Gogh used many styles to express what he sensed, not only impressionism.  I love Van Gogh's country side paintings.  After reading the Van Gogh Museum Amsterdam and the explanations about these works, I found myself loving them even more.  I was impressed with the information about the museums near the Van Gogh Museum.  I am not a world traveler and have had no desire to visit the world since college.  Reading the Van Gogh Museum has awakened a small desire to go visit this museum.
