Go Vinny Gogh

The Royal Academy of Art's new Van Gogh exhibition is already sold out. The emphasis is on marrying Vincent's letters to his family and friends with his art, especially as only one of his paintings sold during his lifetime.

The most poignant letter was the one, half-finished, found on his body when he died: Vincent van Gogh didn't find an adequate answer to the question 'Who am I?, which is perhaps the most fundamental puzzle we all face daily on our individual journeys through life.
