Now in Tokyo , until the end of this year we have a chance to see the exhibition of one of the most famous absinthe drinker in history . VICENT VAN GOGH.
Vicent Van Gogh ( 30/03/1853 Netherlands ), had a short career as an artist , only 10 years but he could able to make more than 800 paintings and 700 drawings .
The most interesting part of the exhibition was when Van Gogh moved to Paris and start to change the color of his works . We can see that he had influence of the impressionism and even influence of the japanese Ukiyo-e .
Enjoy the vivid colors of his work and maybe a glass of absinthe after the exhibition . Unfortunately they don’t have absinthe in the Museum Cafe .
