Van Gogh's Japanese Inspired Painting


"Bridge in Rain," (1887) after Japanese artist Hiroshige

People sometimes ask if Van Gogh understood the Japanese language here at all.. I kind of doubt it, I can't find any definitive answer at the moment

Van Gogh could draw so superbly and with fine detail I believe he just did what he wanted here... results are impressive
