Van Gogh works on paper acquired by museums worldwide
1970-1996

This list contains all the works on paper by Van Gogh which, as far as is known, entered a public collection after the publication of De la Faille's oeuvre catalogue, The works of Vincent van Gogh (Amsterdam 1970) - either as loans or as new acquisitions. Because the list is intended as a supplement to this oeuvre catalogue, no account has been taken of the fact that some of the works may since have been called into question. Unfortunately, not all museums supplied their inventory numbers.

In De la Faille's oeuvre catalogue, three drawings in public collections were mistakenly omitted. Although strictly speaking they should not be included here, for the sake of completeness they have, in fact, been incorporated. Also included, in the case of the Van Gogh Museum, are those drawings belonging to the Vincent van Gogh Foundation which were only transferred to the museum after 1970.

To facilitate research, an index has been added listing the works by their F numbers. The index also includes the paintings acquired by museums worldwide since 1970, as published in the Van Gogh Museum Journal 1995, pp. 215-20.
