Van Gogh died in 1890. By 1909, Anna, the oldest Van Gogh sister, “wrote of selling a picture that he had given Willemien, enabling her to pay for medical costs: ‘I remember when Wil got the painting from Vincent, but what a figure! Who would have thought that Vincent would contribute to Wil’s upkeep in this way?'” – The Observer (UK)
