The exhibition Van Gogh and the Sunflowers allows you to discover how important the sunflower was to Van Gogh and will give answers to pressing questions such as how we can best preserve this painting so that it can be enjoyed by generations to come?

Painted in 1889, Sunflowers is one of Van Gogh’s most famous works. He painted five versions of this large bunch of sunflowers in a vase. Why did he choose the sunflower, and what did the flower mean to him? What happened to the painting after it left Van Gogh’s studio and are the colours still the same as 130 years ago?
