Bernadette Murphy: Van Gogh and Gauguin | National Gallery

[@RoulinBrooks]

Bernadette does an outstanding job in her talk. Engaging and informative. Which, if you've read her book, is what you'd expect. She's an incredible researcher and writer.

[@AI-xs4fp]

By far the most in depth look at the tumultuous period in Arles. So well done! Could have gone on listening for hours.

[@ChillVanille]

That was amazing. She is such a great speaker.

Thank you ! Un récit très vivant et documenté de cette courte et tumultueuse amitié.

This lecture was well worth watching. There were a couple of photos I hadn’t seen and I also like the mock-up of Gauguin’s room in the Yellow House.

Loved the book!

[@purpigment]

Thank you, a pleasure to listen to and a genuine attempt to understand and convey what transpired in 1888 between two artists whose lives were filled with such poignant Beauty and Sorrow as depicted in their paintings during their brief sojourn together.

Thanks for that, it was very intriguing 💐

[@krisshackle5556]

Would have loved to listen to the whole thing but the sound level is much too quiet even after trying to listen on different devices.

Enjoyable and interesting to see the aerial photographs, but really there is not even the beginning of a convincing case - nothing that would stand up in court, or even compelling anecdotally. The statement that Bernadette Murphy makes at the beginning is fair enough - that it is a presentation from Gauguin's point of view. But that he made those very cryptic and sparse jottings after the events, then inconsistent accounts later for the autobiography, "proves" nothing. The thin facts being as they are (for what matters not that much anyway, set against the art) the only creditable approach must be to combine ALL the evidence.

[@hansolo2121]

@Darklinger AEld-ridge Hey idiot!!! There has never been a more scrupulous and detailed in-dept research and analysis of the facts surrounding this event than what Bernadette has done here. It won't get any more accurate and convincing than this, ever. If you don't find her conlusions convincing than how can you possibly find any other theory about Van Gogh-Gauguin even remotely convincing or even well researched? You are saying others did a better job at research?
