Lecture 'Gachet and Van Gogh’s Etchings' by Sara Tas

To accompany the major exhibition Van Gogh in Auvers. His Final Months, the Van Gogh Museum organised a Study Day on 5 July 2023, followed by a Symposium on 6 July.
Van Gogh Museum Associate Curator Sara Tas presented her research into Gachet and Van Gogh’s Etchings. Van Gogh experimented with Dr Paul Ferdinand Gachet’s etching press during his stay in Auvers, and produced an etched portrait of the doctor. Sara discussed the sequence of the artist’s proofs and the dating of the etching.
