Rainy and chilly, but full of atmosphere

by Van Gogh

in The Hague

22 October

It’s still autumnal weather here – rainy and chilly, but full of atmosphere – especially good for figures, which show a range of tones on the wet streets and roads in which the sky is reflected. It’s what Mauve, above all, does so beautifully time and again.

As a result I’ve been able to do some more to the large watercolour of the crowd of people in front of the lottery office, and I’ve also just started another of the beach, of which this is the composition.
