With all my respect to everybody and to the memories and paintings of Van Gogh, the colors of this model seem a bit the LGBT flag....

Best regards,

Vincent could see colors average people could not see,he could see the absolute beauty of life in simple things like sunflowers or a starry night,and i admire him for that.
I think the model truly reflects Vincents views.

On a sidenote it should be observed that Vincent was known to be addicted to a liquor called Absint,for which sale was forbidden in Europe for a long time.
It is claimed that drinking a lot of Absint can cause you to hallicunate.
The ingredient causing this is called Thujon and comes from specific plants found in nature.

My daughter #4 is a Gogh fan, saw this loco on Facebook, and said it was truly appropriate.
