Don’t miss the Van Gogh Museum while in Amsterdam

I’d long wanted to visit the Van Gogh Museum, so a weekend trip to Amsterdam with friends was the perfect chance. I enjoyed exploring at my own pace, taking in each artwork. My favorite was Almond Blossom. I also visited the gift shop and picked up a beautifully designed notebook. I’d strongly recommend the Van Gogh Museum to anyone in the city—it’s an absolute must-see!

We had a wonderful afternoon with the whole family! My wife, the kids, and I all loved the exhibition. With our priority access tickets, we skipped the huge entry lines and saved plenty of time. Seeing the iconic paintings up close was unforgettable, and I particularly enjoyed the collection of letters, which gave an intriguing insight into Van Gogh’s life.

Van Gogh Museum Tickets

SEE VAN GOGH’S MASTERPIECES

Enjoy access to all permanent and temporary exhibitions at the Van Gogh Museum, with an optional audio guide to deepen your insight into the artist’s life and work. Admire the iconic Sunflowers, one of several versions Van Gogh painted—one of which he gifted to his friend, Paul Gauguin. Remarkably, this masterpiece was created using only three shades of yellow. See The Bedroom, where Van Gogh intentionally skewed the perspective, inspired by Japanese printmaking—a style also evident in Almond Blossom, a delicate image of a blooming almond branch against a blue sky, symbolizing spring and renewal. View The Yellow House (The Street), depicting his home in Arles, France, which he envisioned as a collaborative space for artists. Explore The Sower, one of roughly 30 works on this theme, and The Potato Eaters, a moving portrayal of rural life showing peasants sharing a modest meal in a dimly lit room.

SEE WHAT THE ARTIST LOOKED LIKE AT VARIOUS POINTS OF HIS LIFE

In Self-Portrait with Grey Felt Hat, Van Gogh used the Pointillism technique, setting a cool blue background against the warm orange tones of his beard and hair for a vivid contrast. This work, along with Self-Portrait as a Painter—his final portrait created in Paris—was painted during his stay in the French capital. In the latter, his expression hints at his dislike for the city. Beyond these portraits, visitors can explore many more of Van Gogh’s works, as well as pieces by artists like Maurice de Vlaminck and Kees van Dongen, both inspired by his style. The museum also showcases Van Gogh’s personal letters and drawings, many containing sketches that offer a unique glimpse into his creative process.

FOLLOW THE ARTISTIC TRAIL

To dive deeper into Van Gogh’s influence on other artists and movements, visit the Stedelijk Museum or the Moco Museum—both just a short walk away and dedicated to modern and contemporary art. You can also explore the world of another Dutch master at the Rembrandt House Museum, his former home and studio. These attractions, along with the Van Gogh Museum, are included in the Amsterdam Museum Pass, making it an ideal way to enjoy more of the city’s cultural highlights in one trip.
