I concur with Poet Denis Mair comments. Your familiarity with Vincent's letter is significant in crafting this wonderful series on Van Gogh. Another very interesting and informative write, my friend, Dr. Geeta.

An artist who can capture and reflect in a canvas with utmost passion the truth of life and expressed emotion on such art is a unique and great artist.
