Van Gogh Museum collection to be showcased in Dubai

Official reproductions of six of Vincent Van Gogh’s most famous works will be available for viewing throughout March in Dubai, at the Fairmont The Palm’s Mashrabiya Lounge.

Art fans can take a look at Sunflowers of 1889, Almond blossom from 1890, and The harvest of 1888, as well as The bedroom, Wheatfield under thunderclouds, Boulevard de Clichy and Landscape at twilight. The iconic art will be hosted by Axel Rüger, director of the Van Gogh Museum, in Amsterdam and V. Willem van Gogh, the great grandnephew of Vincent van Gogh.

Informative tours of the collection will take place every Saturday in March starting at 2pm in the lobby and to complement this exhibition (which is also for purchase), the hotel’s culinary team has created a Van Gogh-inspired afternoon tea menu.

Both exciting events start 26 February, with the food inspired by the Mediterranean flavours from where the great artist lived and worked.
