“if i am worth anything later, I am worth something now. for wheat is wheat, even if people think it is grass in the beginning”
is such a beautiful line from van gogh.
#i think the story of van gogh is nice even if its tragic#he believed in this artist utopia where artists would work together#but the only one to join him was gauguin#who ridiculed his work so hard ppl attributed it to van goghs later meltdowns#so it brings me a lot of joy when i see their works next to each others now#but while everyone fights for a photo with a van gogh painting#few seem to care for gaugin’s work#maybe thats not the moral to take away from it#it just feels poetic
