Cara Looij

At the age of about 14 I said to my mum: “I don’t think it matters whether someone is a boy or a girl, I think I would love the person rather than the gender.” My mum’s response was: “I think that if you choose to be gay, you’d be choosing a very difficult life for yourself” – and we never spoke about it again. If I could speak to my younger self I’d tell her not to be afraid of being different, you’ll find that it’s the thing you’ll learn to love about yourself when you’re older.’  From the series Queer Letters.  Photograph: Heather Glazzard.  Posted 14th Nov, 2018,  (theGuardian)

Prisoners Exercising

Prisoners Exercising, 1890

Oil on canvas

Prisoners Exercising was actually made after a print of Newgate Prison in London by Doré, whose work van Gogh had admired for some years. Van Gogh had begun to collect graphic illustrations from magazines in the early 1880s, and added prints of Doumier, Paul Gavami (1804-66) and Doré

to his collection. He then referred to these works in later years (as well as multiple prints of Millet's paintings), often making several copies of a single image. The prints were in black and white, so van Gogh improvised with the colour, and gave the paintings his own visual interpretation.
