Van Gogh Vincent "Postman Joseph Roulin" - 1889


"In my opinion, I am often wealthy, not in money, but (not all days though) rich because I found my work. Something which I live for with heart and soul and that gives passion and meaning to life." - Vincent Van Gogh, The Hague, March 11, 1883

Portrait of the Postman Joseph Roulin - Ooc 65 x 54 cm. Arles: April, 1889 - Otterlo: Kröller-Müller Museum
 
"Now I'm working on a different model, a postman in blue uniform decorated with gold, a big bearded head, very sociable. [...] A more interesting man than many other."
