About this quote

The earliest known appearance of this quote is a 2009 exhibition catalog (Vincent Van Gogh: Between Earth and Heaven: The Landscapes, Kunstmuseum Basel) — nearly 120 years after van Gogh's death. A search of the Van Gogh Museum's complete letter archive found no matching text. Quote Investigator concludes the creator is unknown, and the saying was almost certainly never written by van Gogh.
