Follow your guide who, after meeting you at your hotel or private residence in downtown Paris, will lead you to the picturesque village of Auvers-sur-oise, located about an hour away from Paris, the cradle of Impressionism, but also best known for having hosted Vincent van Gogh during the last 70 days of his life.
Like Doctor Gachet, French doctor, great supporter of artists and the Impressionist movement, known for having welcomed Vincent van Gogh in Auvers-Sur-Oise in 1890, you will not remain indifferent to the charm of this village located on the edge of the oise. Doctor Gachet looked after the painter's mental health during his last weeks in Auvers and "Van Gogh is known to have said that he had found a true friend and brother in Doctor Gachet".
This private half-day trip will allow you to soak up the atmosphere of this picturesque site whose inhabitants and the surrounding area inspired Vincent van Gogh with more than 80 works and 64 sketches that he frenetically painted before dieing from a gunshot wound to abdomen.
You will walk in the footsteps of one of the most famous and influential figures in the history of Western art at the end of the 19th century and discover during a relaxing and inspiring stroll, sites such as the house of Doctor Gachet, you will see the church immortalized by Van Gogh, in a painting which is now exposed at the Musée d'Orsay. You will feel the atmosphere of the Auberge Ravoux, the small hotel and restaurant where Van Gogh lived until his death and you’ll see Van Gogh’s room there, which has been lovingly preserved as it was in his time.
