Vincent van Gogh - Le Moulin de la Galette 1886 Vincent van Gogh came to paint this Moulin de la Galette
(The Blute-Fin Windmill, Montmartre) in quite particular conditions that might well qualify as a transition, and the
work fits within a series of views he produced of Paris. The Dutch artist arrived in France’s capital in March of
1886. There he contacted his brother Theo—without any prior notice—who had already spent seven years based
in Paris, managing a small gallery on Montmartre Boulevard on behalf of Boussod et Valadon. - ArtsViewer.com
