The paintings I like best

by Van Gogh

in Paris

11 October

This time I’d like to write to you as I seldom do; I’d actually like to tell you in detail about my life here.
As you know I live in Montmartre. Also living here is a young Englishman…18 years old, the son of an art dealer in London, who will probably enter his father’s firm later on.

Yesterday we went to the Luxembourg together and I showed him the paintings I like best there.
J. Breton, Alone, The blessing of the corn, Calling the gleaners
Brion, Noah, The pilgrims of St Odile
Bernier, Fields in winter
Cabat, The pond and Autumnal evening
Emile Breton, Winter evening. Bodmer, Fontainebleau
Duverger, The labourer and his children
Millet, The church at Gréville
Daubigny, Spring and Autumn
Français, The end of winter and The cemetery
Gleyre, Lost illusions, Christ in the Garden of Olives and Malaria, also
Rosa Bonheur, Ploughing &c.

Gustave Brion, The end of the flood (Noah)
