Mother's Day Special...
With only a month or so left to run at the Royal Academy, tickets to this exhibition are becoming harder and harder to come across. Thankfully, Theatre Breaks still have a wide range of Van Gogh packages still available. Contact us for availability on 0800 458 3408
Over 35 original letters, rarely exhibited to the public due to their fragility, will be on display in the main galleries of Burlington House, together with around 65 paintings and 30 drawings that express the principal themes to be found within the correspondence. Thus the exhibition will offer a unique opportunity to gain an insight into the complex mind of Vincent van Gogh. This will be the first major Van Gogh exhibition in London for over forty years.
