Van Gogh writes his brother Theo


Paris , 6 July 1875

"I'm renting a little room
in Montmartre I'm sure you'd
like. It's small , but it looks out
over a little garden full of ivy &
Virginia creeper. I'll tell you the
prints I have on the wall:

I read Irving Stone's bio of Vincent YEARS ago, and this post recalls it to mind. :)
