¥2,000 (advance sales)¥2,200 (at the door)

Step inside the world Van Gogh never lived to see.

What to expect

Vincent van Gogh once dreamed that his paintings would offer solace and be seen long after his death. Van Gogh’s Home: The Painter’s Legacy, the Family Collection, the Ongoing Story brings that vision full circle, tracing how his art passed through the hands of those who loved him most.

This landmark exhibition — the first of its kind in Japan — focuses on the Van Gogh family collection, illuminating the devotion of Theo, Jo, and Vincent Willem van Gogh in safeguarding and shaping Vincent’s legacy. On display will be rarely seen letters, original canvases, and archival materials.
