Exhibition ‘The Potato Eaters. Mistake or Masterpiece?’
How did Vincent van Gogh approach The Potato Eaters? What was he hoping to achieve? And did he succeed? Find out in the exhibition.
After being closed for more than a month as a result of corona measures by the Dutch government, the Van Gogh Museum reopens on 26 January. The museum will follow government guidelines to ensure that visits are as safe as possible.
The temporary exhibition The Potato Eaters: Mistake or Masterpiece? is still on display up and until 13 February. The four recently acquired prints by Mary Cassatt can now be admired by the public for the first time.
Safety measures
A safe and pleasant visit to the Van Gogh Museum still remains a priority. Therefore, the Van Gogh Museum will follow government guidelines which states that visitors over the age of 12 are required to show a valid COVID Certificate (coronavirus entry pass or green pass). Face masks are compulsory for all visitors, and so is booking a ticket in advance. The number of available tickets is (and will remain) limited.
This way, all visitors will have plenty of space to get to know Van Gogh better, and keep the required distance from other visitors and staff.
