The Van Gogh Museum is the most popular museum in Amsterdam, The Netherlands, featuring the works of the Dutch painter Vincent van Gogh and his contemporaries. It has the largest collection of Van Gogh's paintings and drawings in the world.
The main exhibition chronicles the phases of Van Gogh's life, from his childhood to his various emotional stages through his death. Highlights include "The Potato Eaters" which I didn't like at all, "Bedroom in Arles" (so-so) and one of the three "Sunflowers" paintings with a yellow background.
It is interesting to track how the style and the mood of Van Gogh works change over the time and influenced by different stages of his life. But from all I have seen I prefer his the most colurful works, landscapes and seascapes, flowers and his Japanese period.
