A hundred years after acquiring one of Vincent Van Gogh's "Sunflowers," Britain's National Gallery in London brings his vision to life by showcasing three works side-by-side for the first time. The triptych, which features two from of his sunflower series, forms part of a major exhibition dedicated to the Dutch painter and titled "Van Gogh: Poets and Lovers." "He was not just a person tormented and suffering all his life. He was a person deeply committed to the beauty of nature, deeply committed to friends and family and deeply committed to establishing a career as an avant garde artist," says co-curator Christopher Riopelle.
