The archetypal, misunderstood, solitary artist, Vincent van Gogh dies barely acknowledged. However, after his death his legend took root.

Now van Gogh’s works are among some of the best known and most valuable in the world. Can we dig through the layers of mystique and sentimentality to see his work as he saw it and perhaps find what it means to us now?

This lecture is part of Guildford Festival of the Arts, 25 – 28 September 2025.

V Café will be open for refreshments and a light lunch.
