Candidate passages:
While in Saint-Remy interest began to build in van Gogh's work:   Theo, Van Gogh's brother, wrote in July 1889, that Camille and Lucien Pissarro, Père Tanguy, Erik Theodor Werenskiold and Octave Maus, secretary of the Les XX group in Brussels, had seen the paintings that he'd made in southern France.
On Van Gogh's behalf, Theo accepted an offer from Maus to exhibit Van Gogh's work at the Les XX group's upcoming exhibition.
Van Gogh's "Starry Night over the Rhone" and "The Irises" were exhibited at the Société des Artistes Indépendants on the third of September.
In January, 1890 six of Van Gogh's works were exhibited at the seventh exhibition of Les XX in Brussels along with, among others, Paul Cézanne, Camille Pissarro, Pierre-Auguste Renoir, Paul Signac and Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec.
Van Gogh's painting "The Red Vineyard" was sold to artist Anna Boch at the exhibition for 400 francs.
In the same month an article is published "Les Isole: Vincent van Gogh" in the "Mercure de France".
Ten of Van Gogh's works were presented at the March, 1890 Société des Artistes Indépendants.
Paul Gauguin, Claude Monet and Pissarro were quite impressed with his works.
Over this time, though, Van Gogh's health ebbed and flowed between periods of attacks, recovery and resumption of painting.
In April, 1890, near the end of van Gogh's stay at Saint-Paul's hospital, Theo wrote to his sister and mother, "I am so pleased that Vincent's work is being more appreciated.
If he were fit I believe that there would be nothing for me to desire, but it appears that this is not to be.
"The sale of "Red Vineyard" was the only sale of van Gogh's paintings made during his lifetime. 
Jan Hulsker (2 October 1907, The Hague – 9 November 2002, Vancouver) is a Dutch art historian especially noted for his work on Vincent van Gogh.
He studied Dutch literature in Leiden and was promoted with a thesis on the author Aart van der Leeuw.
In 1953, he was appointed to the Ministerie van Cultuur, Recreatie en Maatschappelijk werk, in charge of the art department.
In 1959, he became general director in charge of culture at large (directeur-generaal voor culturele zaken).
The establishment of the Vincent van Gogh Foundation and the Van Gogh Museum in Amsterdam were among his major tasks.
From the 1950s, Hulsker contributed to Van Gogh research, concentrating on the dating of Van Gogh's correspondence.
In 1973, Hulsker's most important study was published, "Van Gogh door Van Gogh", which has not been translated from the Dutch.
He is the author of an acknowledged "catalogue raisonné" of Van Gogh's work, published in 1978 and revised in 1989.
His catalogue numbers are preceded by a 'JH': thus JH1731 refers to the 1889 oil painting "The Starry Night" (previously catalogued by Jacob Baart de la Faille as F612).
In the 1980s, Hulsker left the Netherlands and settled in Vancouver, Canada, where he died in 2002. 
Jacob-Baart de la Faille (1 June 1886, Leeuwarden – 1959) compiled the first "catalogue raisonné" of the work of Vincent van Gogh, published in 1928.
The catalogue was revised and republished by an editorial committee in 1970, and this version is considered to be the definitive catalogue of van Gogh's work.
His catalogue numbers are preceded by an 'F': thus F612 refers to "Starry Night".
Shortly after the publication of the original catalogue, de la Faille became involved in the big fraud affair concerning the Berlin art dealer Otto Wacker, as De la Faille had certified the authenticity of 30 paintings which turned out to be fakes. 
One of Van Gogh's most popular and widely known series are his Cypresses.
During the Summer of 1889, at sister Wil's request, he made several smaller versions of "Wheat Field with Cypresses".
These works are characterised by swirls and densely painted impasto, and produced one of his best-known paintings, "The Starry Night".
Other works from the series include "Olive Trees with the Alpilles in the Background" (1889) "Cypresses" (1889), "Cypresses with Two Figures" (1889–1890), "Wheat Field with Cypresses" (1889), (Van Gogh made several versions of this painting that year), "Road with Cypress and Star" (1890), and "Starry Night Over the Rhone" (1888).
They have become synonymous with Van Gogh's work through their stylistic uniqueness.
According to art historian Ronald Pickvance,Hoping to attain a gallery for his work, his undertook a series of paintings including "Still Life: Vase with Twelve Sunflowers" (1888), and "Starry Night Over the Rhone" (1888), all intended to form the "décorations for the Yellow House". 
When exhibited for the first time, in 1891, the painting was entitled "Coffeehouse, in the evening" ("Café, le soir").
This is the first painting in which he used starry backgrounds; he went on to paint star-filled skies in "Starry Night Over the Rhone" (painted the same month), and the better known "Starry Night" a year later.
Van Gogh also painted a starlight background in "Portrait of Eugène Boch".
Van Gogh mentioned the "Cafe Terrace" painting in a letter written to Eugène Boch on October 2, 1888, writing he had painted "a view of the café on place du Forum, where we used to go, "painted at night"" (emphasis van Gogh's).
