Washington DC's National Gallery of Art holds 13 works by Vincent van Gogh (1853–1890) — the city's entire known holding of this artist in a single institution.

Van Gogh completed over 900 paintings in a decade, and seeing them in person reveals the extraordinary pace and emotional intensity of his working life. The impasto brushwork — paint applied in thick, urgent strokes — has a sculptural quality that transforms the experience of his most famous images.
